“Their tentacles, which are disposed in regular circles, and tinged with a variety of bright lively colors, very nearly represent the beautiful petals of some f the most elegantly fringed and radiated flowers, such as the carnation, marygold, and anemone. They are of various sizes, from that of the smallest thimble to the largest apple; and have considerable power of locomotion, being able not only to move along upon the base, but also in a reversed position upon their entacles.” — Goodrich, 1859
"I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys."(Song of Solomon 2:1)Since ancient times it has been common feature of monasteries and convents to have enclosed gardens as a reflective place of retreat. It served as a little oasis away from community life in which to think, read, sit, walk, and pray in silence along with the aid of nature's beauty, which is designed to lift the human soul to God.Even for the laity living in the world during medieval times, their life of faith colored their view of nature. As the faithful meditated on the life of Jesus and Mary in the Gospels, the particular characteristics of certain plants and herbs would remind them in one way or another of various biblical events or theological truths. Naturally, the plant kingdom took on names rooted in the Catholic faith.For example, a plant's color, shape, texture, or the time it bloomed could be said to tell a story about Mary's virtues. If you've ever heard of Rosemary and Marigold, then you already know some plants named after the Blessed Mother. Each time one of these plants caught the eye, the faithful were sweetly reminded of the Queen of Heaven and Earth.As a sign of Marian devotion, the faithful planted gardens in churches, monasteries, convents, hospitals, family homes, etc. intentionally filled with plants named after her, which became known as Mary Gardens.[[18353, 4397]]The first reference to an actual garden dedicated to Mary is from the life of St. Fiacre, Irish patron saint of gardening, who planted and tended a garden around the oratory to Our Lady he built at his famous hospice for the poor and infirm in France in the 7th Century. The first record of a flower actually named for Mary is that of "seint mary gouldes" (St. Mary's Gold, or Marygold) in 1373.
