May Birthstone

May's birthdays have an emerald for their birthstone. 

The Lily of the Valley

Every month has its own birthday flower. From the snowdrop of darkest winter to the poppy of high summer, the British calendar is laid out as a story of seasonal blooms. Known for its sweet fragrance, this flower is called Convallaria majalis in Latin, referring to the fact that it flowers in May. In the Victorian language of flowers, the lily of the valley signified happiness and humility. The lily of the valley is the birth flower for May..
