they also have an amazing 1940's Greek Revival style house here in town.
they come in most weekends-the last not so. heading off to NYC for a bit, leaving some roses that needed cutting, and Me, being my sweet self, happily making the sacrifice.
of course I would have to bring some roses home & dead head the little beautys.
it rained roses.
I felt like I was harvesting, not to mention the bud and blooms that had gotten heavenly-ish over watered, to say the least.
what started as a bouquet - became a crop.
heartbreakingly, many went by the wayside (that would be the trashcan)
my house is FULL of roses today.
it's raining roses inside today.

ReplyDeleteSo beautiful, the essence nearly comes through with the photos. One may be wise, however, to post guard next year when one's buttercups bloom, in case Brother decides to return the favor.
