These Water forget-me-nots grow in profusion over the rocks of the remains of the nunnery on the Isle of Iona. Constructed in the 1200’s the nunnery was begun after the establishment of the Benedictine monastery, founded by Raghnall mac Somhairle in 1203. Raghnall's sister, Bethóc, became the first prioress. This was one of the three Augustinian monasteries of women in Scotland. These ruins are the most complete of the three.
