St. Thérèse of Lisieux enjoyed nature and saw the world as God’s garden. She was content to serve God humbly and remain unnoticed by others, much like a simple wildflower rather than an elegant rose. In her writings she often compared herself to a wildflower, “the Little Flower of Jesus.” Therefore, she is referred to by the nickname “the Little Flower.”
