We always have our squirrels, but the same cannot be said of our flowers. So, in a two part posting, the flowers of Notre Dame will be shared. Collected during various walks about campus and the lakes, the flora of Notre Dame in all its beauty can be seen. On the flowers, Fr. Ralph said, "I cannot help but recall a Gospel pericope from Luke... Consider how the wild flowers grow. . . . Not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.”
