OK, this is what I'm going to do for now:

      <label
        for="timerange_from_month"
      >Month</label>
      <select 
        id="timerange_from_month"
        name="timerange_from_month"
        title="Select the start month."
        petal:attributes="name name_from_month; id name_from_month"
      >
        <div 
          petal:repeat="month self/month_select --from"
          petal:omit-tag=""
        >
          <option 
            selected="selected"
            petal:attributes="value    month/value;
                              title    month/value"
            petal:content="month/label"
            petal:condition="true: month/is_selected"
          ></option>
          <option 
            petal:attributes="value    month/value;
                              title    month/value"
            petal:content="month/label"
            petal:condition="false: month/is_selected"
          ></option>
        </div>
      </select>

How about doing this like this:

      <label
        for="timerange_from_month"
      >Month</label>
      <select 
        id="timerange_from_month"
        name="timerange_from_month"
        title="Select the start month."
        petal:attributes="name name_from_month; id name_from_month"
      >
        <option 
          selected="selected"
          value="01"
          title="01"
          petal:condition="true: from_month --01"
        >January</option>
        <option 
          value="01"
          title="01"
          petal:condition="false: from_month --01"
        >January</option>
        <option 
          selected="selected"
          value="01"
          title="01"
          petal:condition="true: from_month --02"
        >Feburary</option>
        <option 
          value="01"
          title="01"
          petal:condition="false: from_month --02"
        >Feburary</option>

        ...

      </select>
