In Paris on May 1, you'll find bouquets of lily of the valley for sale everywhere. It's one day when anyone can harvest these fragrant little flowers from their garden and sell them on the street without a vendor's license. (These were from my mom's garden, which was hit hard by Hurricane Sandy. I'm going to miss these beautiful blooms!) [To see more April flowers, visit Tina's Picstory.
