The flower for the month of May is the lily of the valley. Here is the story and language of this flower.
Linguistic Roots for the Name Lily of the Valley
The lily of the valley heralds from northern Europe. As a result, it did not originally have a Latin or Greek name. The monks who named it had knowledge of botany and so chose a Latin name for it that had religious connotations. They named it lilium convallium (now convallaria majalis), lily of the valley. The naming of the plant referred not only to the flower’s tendency to grow in valleys but also to the Song of Solomon where we read the phrase “I am the rose of Sharon and the lily of the valley.”
The official Latin name convallaria majalis means valley (convallaria) and the month of May (majalis), which probably refers to where and when it blooms.
History of the Flower
One of the colloquial names for the lily of the valley is Our Lady’s Tears because legend claims that the flower sprung up from the Virgin Mary’s tears, which she shed at the foot of the cross. As a result, the flower became associated with Mary.
In ancient times, boys and girls would pick bouquets of lily of the valley because it was supposed to bring good fortune in love. Because of the timing of the plant’s blossom, it was often referred to as May Lily or May Bells.
