May – Lily Of The Valley & Hawthorn

Those who are born in May probably know already that the lily of the valley and hawthorn are the flowers that bloom at that time. Lily of the valley flowers stands for purity, humility, and sweetness. These flowers bloom only for a short period of time, which makes them extremely rare and exclusive.

According to Victorian times, these flowers were also seen as a symbol of “returning to happiness”. However, the hawthorn is also known as the May tree. This extremely delicate flower has so many meanings and symbols, especially in Irish folklore.

Hawthorn flowers stand for protection and love for everything that surrounds you. Because they have such berry-like fruits, hawthorn is also known as a symbol of fertility.

    Really lovely flowers whcih they show for every month,friends.Kudos,and God bless them.

  • Nice article idea. Sincerely, and the seasonal timming is perfect. But when there’s only 1 picture, and 2 small paragraphs and everything else is advertising it’s very annoying. No mention of what the month’s flowers actually are or their individual meaning. Hope you correct this.
    Sincerely
