The Flower Moon right after Mother’s Day… how appropriate The Algonquin tribes of what is now the north-eastern United States named the full moon in May after the flowers that are abundant this time of year. Other names include the Corn or Corn Planting Moon. Will you catch a glimpse of the Flower Moon today?
