- There are some old people in this district who say that the rose brings happiness with its perfume because the B.V.M. hung the little frocks of Jesus to dry on the rose bushes. It is also believed that wherever the B.V.M. walked a rose sprang up.
- It is also believed that the snowdrops bloom in memory of the time when the B.V.M. presented Jesus in the temple.
