Birthday flower on February 13th: Western primrose
Third century Virgin Martyr of Syria Island, Flower of St. Aggada
Since ancient times, Christianity has had the habit of connecting saints with specific flowers. This follows from the fact that when the church commemorates saints, they often use blooming flowers. Flowers decorate the altar! In medieval Catholic monasteries, various flowers were planted like a garden center. Over time, the church combined the 366 days of saints with different flowers to form the so-called floral calendar. At that time, most of the monasteries were located in southern Europe, which had a Mediterranean climate and was very suitable for growing flowers and plants. Western primrose, the yellow flower that announces the arrival of spring, was chosen to honor St. Agada, the virgin martyr of the third century Syrian island. It is widely distributed in mountainous areas from central to southern Europe.
