Lilies of the valley (referred to as Jacob's ladders prior to Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer) are a type of flower in the Animal Crossing series, that first appeared in Doubutsu no Mori e+. They spawn only when the town is in perfect condition. This flower does not have any variations, appearing only as a cluster of whitish-green, bell-shaped buds dangling from a leafy plant. This plant does not breed when placed next to other Jacob's Ladders, but increases the chance for hybrid flowers. They typically spawn at the top of cliffs (one per acre), except in Animal Crossing: Wild World, where cliffs do not appear.
In Happy Home Designer, lilies of the valley can be unlocked for use in home and yard decoration by designing Lucky, Mint, or Skye's houses.
Further information
Lilies of the valley are, in real life, flowering and sweetly-scented plants that are native to Europe and Asia in cooler parts of the Northern Hemisphere. They naturally grow in soft, silty soils in areas with lots of shade, typically of high elevation (up to around 1,500 m high); this is why they usually spawn among cliffsides in Animal Crossing. Lilies of the valley typically flower and bear fruit in early March. However, all parts of the plant are highly poisonous, including its berries.
Earlier games in the series refer to the plant as "Jacob's ladder", which is actually the common name for the Polenonium genus of plants. These flowers are usually purple or blue, and appear very different from the distinctive bell-shaped lilies of the valley.
