Lily of the Valley and Hawthorn
Those born in May have two birth flowers—the lily of the valley and hawthorn.
Lily of the Valley (Modesty - Untaintedness - Sweetness): These flowers are viewed as a symobol of new beginnings and humility. They represent chastity, purity, motherhood, and kindness. Lily of the valley flowers are also thought to bring luck in love and a return of happiness.
Hawthorn (Love - Motherly Protection): These most sacred flowers on a tree symbolize protection and love. They also are viewed as a symbol of fertility.
