Explanation:
Lily of the valley, Convallaria majalis (/ˌkɒnvəˈleɪriə məˈdʒeɪlɪs/)[1], sometimes written lily-of-the-valley,[2] is a woodland flowering plant with sweetly scented, pendent, bell-shaped white flowers borne in sprays in spring. It is native throughout the cool temperate Northern Hemisphere in Asia and Europe. Though some non-medical sources claim it is highly poisonous[3], there are no published cases of deaths due to this plant in humans, "most exposures result in minimal or no toxicity"[4], and "confirmed reports of human poisonings by this plant are, however, extremely rare."[5] Large-scale reviews of exposures to lily-of-the-valley have found few people experience any symptoms, and only a tiny minority (0.3%) developed serious but transient symptoms.[6]
