Lily Of The Valley (Convallaria majalis) also known as Ladder-to-Heaven, Jacob's Ladder.
A legend says that the scent of Lilyof-the-Valley attracts the nightingale from hedgerows, and leads him to choose his mate.
The fragrance is wonderful, but like many beautiful plants,this one is poisonous.

Taken early one morning in my garden with Canon 450D, 60mm macro lens.I did not get the focus right but think it might look ok
Thank you for viewing and for comments which are always valued :)
