Lily of the valley has been cultivated for over 400 years and has a rich folklore and popularity throughout Europe. The latin Convallaria majalis translates as ‘that which belongs to May’ which makes it the recognised flower of May and the official flower of the Gemini star sign. On May 1, 1561, King Charles IX of France was gifted a lily of the valley for luck, he continued the tradition by giving the women of his court the sweet scented flower every year. Today, every year in France, bunches are sold on the streets and people wear a sprig in their clothing. The May 1st pagan festival of Beltane uses lily of the valley in its celebrations and it’s also a symbol for International Worker’s Day (May Day). Lily of the Valley is thought to protect gardens from evil spirits and witches’ spells. It is also considered the flower of the fairies, its tiny bells used as cups from which to drink.
