March....Marzo!



The word 'March' comes from the Roman 'Martius'. This was

originally the first month of the Roman calendar and was named after Mars, the god of war.The Anglo-Saxons called the month "Hlyd monath" which means Stormy month. One of the flowers most associated with March is the narcissus -Wild daffodil-, named after the boy in Greek mythology, who was changed into a flower. Narcissus is also known as Lent Lily because it blooms in early spring and the blooms usually dropping before Easter. It is the main daffodil species of Britain.MORE ▼
