Thérèse of Lisieux (2 January 1873 – 30 September 1897), or Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus and the Holy Face, born Marie-Françoise-Thérèse Martin, was a French Carmelite nun. She is also known as "The Little Flower of Jesus".

from her wikipedia article.

 She is often pictured with an armful of roses because of what she said on her deathbed: “After my death, I will let fall a shower of roses. I will spend my Heaven doing good upon earth. . . My mission is to make God loved."
