An Nóinín Mór
Chomh fada le cuimhne na ndaoine, tá peitil na nóiníní móra tarraingthe ceann ar cheann ag leannáin, agus é nó í ag smaoineamh ‘an bhfuil nó nach bhfuil grá aici/aige dom’. Is ilbhliantóg forleathan é an nóinín mór a fhásann ar thalamh tirim, suaite agus ar mhóinéir fhéaraigh. Feictear an bláth aonair atá ag nóinín mór ó Bhealtaine go Meán Fómhair.
