I know this is not the right place for this but I need to make sure people see it. =)
Hello, everyone! I'm new to this site and was hoping that someone has or know where I can get lily of the valley flowers. I hear they are pretty hard to come by this time of year. If someone has them I'm willing to buy. if anyone knows where I could get them that would be great. I'm really in desperate need of these!!! Thank you =)

Your best bet is to contact a florist. Or you could try searching online. A friend of mine wanted these in her wedding bouquet out of season and they were very expensive, but she did find a supply online.

Good luck!

Do you want the plants or flowers for a bouquet?

If you're going for the plants(bulbs) you need to be aware that they are poisonous-something to maybe viol about if you have kids or young dogs.

Lily-of-the-Valley is a lovely flower, but it tends to be invasive as well.

Hi Avx...I'm new here too...but also in Michigan (NLP)...What part of the state are you in? And, are you looking for flowers or plants? Starzgarden's suggestion of Ebay is a good one.
I have lilies of the valley and,Lovinlife is right...they can be quite invasive. They seem to start off slow, and once they get going, look out! They do however make a good groundcover and filler. Mine are going dormant right now.
