As we come to know the growth and blooming of the Flowers of Our Lady in our Mary Gardens, we acquire a heightened alertness to their presence also in the neighborhoods and waysides through which we travel. Thus discovered, they evoke our reflections and prayers in a spontaneous and ever-changing way as we move about, as distinct from the familiar reflections in our gardens. As Judith Smith observes in The Mary Calendar, Every field path and hedgerow (becomes) an illuminated Book of Hours.
This is a return to the spirituality of medieval times, when symbolical flowers were characteristically encountered in and gathered from the countrysides rather than gardens. In this period, when people traveled mostly afoot, flower prayers were focused, not by garden statues or grottos of Our Lady, but by wayside shines or field crosses encountered as they moved about.

Our Lady of Knock
On a wet Thursday evening, August 21st, 1879, fifteen people watched - for about two hours - a heavenly vision consisting of Our Lady, St. Joseph, St. John, the Heavenly Lamb and adoring Angels at the Church of St. John the Baptist in Knock, Co. Mayo, Ireland - now the National Irish Shrine of Our Lady, visited by over a million pilgrims annually.
Many readers of this article will know of the famous Rosary priest, Fr. Patrick Peyton, born in Mayo and a regular visitor to Knock.
Were it not that in 1972 I had read in one of Ireland s weekly Catholic papers about the Mary Garden movement established in Philadelphia in 1951 by John S. Stokes, Jr., and the late Edward A. G. McTague, the chances are we would not now have our Irish National Mary Garden at the Shrine.

MYSTICAL ROSE FLOWER GARDEN & LEMON ORCHARD. A dream come true for Araceli Llanos.
GOD’S GRACE FARM. Gigi Uy says her products are officially certified organic.
+ January 26, 2021 Gigi Uy of God’s Grace Farm “stumbled” into farming when her health-conscious husband Samuel asked her to add more leafy greens to their diet. She started off planting veggies in pots and was so fascinated seeing her plants flourish that she then put up a greenhouse in their garden. Her harvest was more than enough for the family, so she shared it with relatives and friends.
