I love lily of the valley. Several times ove the alst few years, I have
bought bulbs and planted them in vaious positions in the garden. Nomally
were it is shaded. They never grow even when other stuff aound them thrives.
Also lavender, which I adore.Grows for a year or two, then gives up the
ghost.

Fatsia - which I love, but they just don't do well
and Gaillardia. I've tried at least three years running without success :~(
