In the springtime, the Burning Bush comes into flower. The petals are lilac coloured when they first open, but later fade to white. The plant never sets any berries.
The botanic name is Rubus sanctus. It is a member of the bramble family.

The botanical name is Rubus sanctus. It has delicate blossoms that open lavender and fade to pink. It never sets any berries. There are no other such plants within kilometres of the monastery.
