We have had so many great things to blog about lately, the "Birth Flower of the Month" post had to be delayed for a week! We had wonderful event details to share, plus an exciting giveaway to announce! So, without further ado, here is the May birth flower...

Symbolism of the Lily...
The lily represents PURITY, MAJESTY, SWEETNESS, and HUMILITY. They generally have a strong, sweet fragrance. I love them, just beware of putting too many high-fragrance florals like these in your table centerpieces... you don't want to spoil your dinner!
Color Variety...
What I love about lily's is not only the color combination, but the pattern variations as well! From solid colors to speckles, they are fabulous. You can find them in white, purple, pink, magenta, red, burgundy, peach, orange, and yellow. You'll also see bi-colored lilies!!!

Fun Fact...
Lilies are one of the most popular wedding flowers! This includes the oh-so popular Lily of the Valley and Calla Lily. They are elegant, clean and pretty. Perfect wedding flowers, indeed!
