Abstract
There are many festive events associated with particular flowers in France, among the most pervasive being the association of the lily-of-the-valley (Convallaria majalis) with May Day and maying customs. This entails a relationship with official policies and politics on both the national and the local level. the town of Rambouillet is a case in point, with its lily-of-the-valley Festival, founded officially in 1906. In today’s world, a festival may lead rather a crowded life among many other offerings and the interaction of politics, policies and the many people who work to create and perpetuate it provides us with a glimpse of the interweaving of the festive and the political.
