Aa a symbol of purity, joy, love, sincerity, happiness and luck, Lily of the Valley has much significance. It’s actually the national flower of Finland, and in France, on 1st May for La Fête du Muguet, lily of the valleys are gifted to loved ones. This French custom dates back to the 16th century (inaugurated by Charles IX, King of France, in 1561) – symbolizing luck and happiness. Lily of the valley is mentioned 15 times in the Bible, most often in the Song of Solomon. With strong biblical connections, it’s said to have first bloomed where Eve’s tears fell as she left the Garden of Eden.
