May Day - The Lily of the valley has been associated with
many symbolisms the most prominent is “return to happiness. This delicate fragrant flower is strongly
associated with chastity, purity, joy, luck and modesty. This modest and pure flower is mentioned in
the bible 15 times, is embodied in Christian lore and folklore, May Day (May
1st which happens to be my birthday), weddings and many other
celebrations. Speaking of weddings
British royals brides have had this
beloved flower in their bouquet including Princess Eugenie, The Duchess of
Sussex Megan Markle, The Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cornwall and of course
Princess Diana.
The lily of the valley is known as the flower of the fairies
and the tiny bells are used as cups.
This delicate flower is planted to protect your gardens from evil
spirits and is a charm to ward off witches’ spells.
The muscari like the lily of the valley is a delicate flower
but is a symbol of supremacy and confidence, and also represents mystery and
imagination. The Greeks eat them pickled
as they are an excellent source of vitamin C and high in antioxidants. Please do not try this yourself! Blue hyacinths symbolize sincerity, and in
Christian faith it is a symbol of wisdom and harmony. Look closely to find them depicted in
religious artwork!
The muscari is indigenous to Bulgaria, Greece and
Turkey. This flower is synonymous with
the Greek Goddess Demeter, protector of women so this flower was often
interlaced in bridal circlets.
