St Rose is the patron saint of embroiderers, gardeners, florists, those who suffer ridicule for their piety and those who have family problems. From young, Rose wanted to enter a convent to become a nun and take a vow of chastity. But her parents wanted her to marry and refused to let her enter a convent, which led to her staying cloistered in her room to pray for long periods of time. She made a perpetual vow of virginity.
