It's difficult to believe that there are still such pristine spots left on this planet.
As usual, your selection is excellent Reeth. Many many thanks for this visual treat. smile.gif

Reeth, the new pixs are beautiful. Thank you.

I love wild flowers. wub.gif
Especially those tiny little lily-of-the-valley all over the meadows right after the first spring rains. Do you think you could add a pix or two of them on this thread? That would be lovely.

Here's something more about this beautiful flower 'muguet' as they say in France. wub.gif

Attached Image


I love late April in France for many reasons. Right up at the top of the list is the lovely French custom of offering small bouquets of muguet de bois to friends, family and colleagues on the first of May, May Day. In the last days of April, the streets are filled with muguet vendors, both rogue and approved, who offer two or three branches of this fragrant flower for 3 euros. Flowershops show off charming arrangements incorporating lilies-of-the-valley. Everyone wants to give and receive un brin de muguet for good luck and happiness.

Why muguet? Why May 1? This giving tradition is centuries old, purportedly having started during the reign of Charles IX in the 16th century. At the beginning of the merry month of May, wedding bans were traditionally posted and wreaths of muguets were hung in doorways of the brides-to-be. In the late 1800s, the international workers movement declared the first of this month as May Day, in honor of the workers of the world.

In France, workers and their supporters wore lily-of-the-valley boutonnières to combine old with new. Today many unions in France sponsor flower sales as fundraisers for their members, and May 1 is a national holiday, Fête des Ouvriers. But for me, May 1 is May Day, when the streets are filled with the perfume of muguets des bois and smiling faces exchanging flowers and good wishes for the coming season.
