THE 
CALENDAR OF FLOWERS. 
The Roman Catholic Monks, or the observers of 
the Roman Catholic ritual, have compiled a Cata- 
logue of Flowers for every day in the year, and 
dedicated each flower to a particular saint, on account 
of its blooming about the time of that saint's festival. 
These appropriations form a complete Calendar of 
the Flowers. 
The figures attached express the year in which 
the saint died. 
JANUARY. 
1. Laurustinus, Vibernum tinus. St. Faine, or 
Fanchea, an Irish saint of the sixth century.
