Lily of the Valley
This plant is in flower now (mid May) in North Cornwall. It likes growing here under trees, especially conifers, though this one is in the open which is probably why it hasn’t spread as rapidly as it is supposed to. Pentax K10D.

Wonderful shot with a perfect balance of the flowers against the greenery. Is that a spider hanging down from one of the lower blooms?
M G Pettett replied
Thanks for your comment and for adding this to your list of favourites! Yes it’s a spider – I don’t like to bother other creatures going about their legitimate business while I’m taking photographs!!:)
