The woods where we live smell divine at the moment.
I find it incredible how something so tiny can have such an amazingly powerful scent. Stunning in wedding bouquets in April and May.
The question is will these little beauties be featuring in the Royal wedding flowers???

Lily of the Valley has been a favorite of mine since I was a small child... my mother forbade me from picking them because they were poisonous. Not sure if that is true, but with so many children to raise, I've never included them in any of mine gardens. Seeing yours makes me want to rethink that choice. The ARE quite enchanting.
Lily of the valley is so fragrant. I think I could smell them from your lovely photo.
Looks like I was right with my guess for lily of the valley for the wedding flowers - good choice, the fragrance in the abbey must have been amazing
I was at friends for dinner the other night and on the table was a tiny vase of just one Lily of the valley. I couldn't help but sniff it every now and again. Exquisite I thought though one of my hosts said he hated it!! No accounting for taste.
