I have an area that I want Lily of the valley to run rampant, would also like a possible companion plant?


Lily of the valley are invasive and exclusionary... most similar size
plants will likely be crowded out... plant shrubs/trees.


Our lily of the valley don't seem to grow thick enough to crowd anything
out. But they don't stay in place either. We have some coming up
through Vinca. I don't think I'd plant them that way on purpose though.
