In a belief dating back to the mist of pre-Celtic history, the Hawthorne is a fairy tree in Ireland, a favorite meeting place for fairies.
In May, when Hawthorne is in full bloom, the belief is that the fairies are happy! To avoid making fairies angry, no Irish farmer will ever cut the tree down or even trim it.

Everywhere your path may lead in Ireland, the Hawthorne trees line the road. They are guardians along your journey. Blooming in May, many use this beautiful flower for wedding ceremonies as an emblem of hope, strength and fertility.
