Description
A sweetly-scented woodland perennial that is a favorite for wedding bouquets
It spreads underground by way of rhizomes and forms large colonies in areas of partial shade
Alas with the good comes the bad: it is highly poisonous if ingested
In this regard it featured prominently in the TV series Breaking Bad
More interesting facts:
-Christian lore has the flower springing from the tears of the Virgin Mary at Christ's crucifixion
-another lore has the flowers spring from Eve's tears at the banishment from Paradise
-it's a symbol of humility
