The Virgin Mary's tears

These have always been one of my favorite flowers. They smell so sweet and a little bouquet of cut flowers will last a long time in a tiny vase.

    Did not know this flower was called the Virgin Mary's Tears, I
    always called them lily-of-the-valley. Nice to learn something new.

  2. I've always called them that too, but I looked it up and apparently Virgin Mary's Tears was an old common name once.
