Is there a rose that symbolizes St. Teresa of Avila?

Question

She was the Little Flower, and I believe is associated with roses. Is there a variety that is especially linked to her?

Thank you.

Answer 1

The Little Flower is St Thérèse de Lisieux. I don't know of a specific variety, but if I was planting now, I'd be inclined to use a cottage rose for its simplicity.

Here's a link I found which has a lot about St Thérèse's view of roses and flowers. I think people will like it.
