Lady Berengaria,

Strabo's Hortulus is a 9th century book of Latin poems about gardening
(including poems about individual herbs and flowers) believed to have been
written by an abbot called Walahfrid Strabo.  Raef Payne did a wonderful
English translation, if you can locate a copy from a library or rare book
vendor.  If not, let me know, and I'll try to e-mail some of them to you.
