I went looking for snowdrops today as it's Candlemas - they're supposed to bloom at Candlemas so they're known as 'Candlemas bells'. They're also called dewdrops, death's flower, Eve's tear, February fair-maids, and Mary's tapers. Round our way, they also came out in mid-January! #PlantFolklore

Before it disappears as the site was recently sold - the Church of St. Elizabeth of Hungary at 213 East 83rd Street, NYC, was built in 1892, and became home to the congregation of mainly Slovakian immigrants in 1917, moving from their original location on the Lower East Side. #uppereastside

February takes its name from the Roman purification rituals known as Februa. Snowdrops, often called “fair maids of February,” bloom at this time and have become symbols of purity & renewal. They are also commonly known as the “purification flower” and associated with #Candlemas.
