flower moon
Spring's blooming orb
Flower moon is the traditional name for the full moon in May, when spring flowers bloom abundantly across North America.
Like other folk names for full moons—harvest moon, wolf moon—it reflects seasonal patterns observed by Native American and colonial cultures: We watched the flower moon rise over the garden.
