April's birthstone, the diamond,
is a symbol of enduring love.
April’s birth flower is the daisy which conveys innocence,
loyal love, and purity. It is also a flower given between
friends to keep a secret; “I’ll never tell.” The other April
flower is the sweet pea. Sweet peas signify blissful
pleasure, but are also used to say goodbye.
Treasurer,
Jane Mercer
