Prelude Lily Of The Valley

Contact your local store to check availability

A useful dwarf selection that flowers later than other varieties. Lovely clusters of pure white flowers on short stalks shine against rich, dark green leaves on a densely branched globe shaped form.. New foliage emerges with a pinkish tint. Evergreen.
