Flores Ecclesia
a Calendar of Saints

Yearly Calendar


Introduction

A list of saints on the calendar, with flora.

The monks compiled a catalogue of flowers for each day in the year,
and dedicated each flower to a particular Saint, on account of it
flowering about the time of the Saint's festival.

A list of moveable feasts is appended to the end,
and not included in the main.
