Roses, roses , roses aaahh!

Okay so here is the story......I come from a long line of rose lovers.....I grew up always having fresh roses in this vase which is in the picture....now this is not just any vase...it is Dutch Delft which is hand painted pottery....this vase is probably one hundred years old...my mother brought it from Holland and always had fresh picked roses which my dad grew....so now I have the vase and yes even in the desert I have been able to grow some mighty fine flowers...this is the best year I have had .....I got a little teary when I arranged the roses in this special vase it took me back to very fond memories...so children remember how precious memories are of our loved ones...so share this moment with me and maybe someday one of you will fill this vase with special roses! thank you God for the beauties of the earth!

Very Pretty, I love the Hot pink roses. Have you planted your new bush or did you say Kathy returned it for a different one.
