“Lily of the Valley (Convallaria majalis) Lily of the valley is known to slow the disturbed action of a weak and irritable heart, while at the same time increasing its power. As a heart medication, it is sometimes preferable to the digitalis made from the foxglove plant, because it is less toxic and does not accumulate in the blood. Lily of the valley has one of the most sexual scents of all plants and is widely used in perfume. No wonder it causes the heart to beat stronger.” HeartScentMedicationSexualGenus SpeciesLily Of The Valley Book:Hothouse Flower and the Nine Plants of Desire Source: Hothouse Flower and the Nine Plants of Desire
