Today, my dear friend, Steve, a francophile of the first order, shared that in France on May 1st, the Lily-of-the-Valley is shared between friends as a token a good luck for the year. I will celebrate with you by sharing this image because it is still too cold here for my Lily-of-the-Valley to be blooming.
Lily-of-the-Valley (Convallaria majalis) is a woodland flowering plant also known as the May lily. In addition to luck, it often symbolizes purity and happiness. As beautiful as it is, please do not eat it. It is highly poisonous!
