The father of monastic life, St. The Flower of Antney
Since ancient times, Christianity has had the habit of connecting saints with specific flowers. This is due to the fact that when the church commemorates the saints, they often decorate the altar with blooming flowers! 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. The flower chosen to honor Saint Anthony, the father of monastic life, is the anemone, a sturdy perennial herb commonly found from France to the Greek island of Crete, especially in olive groves. There are many wild ones.
