That's a gorgeous rose!
It looks like Peace Rose, one of my favorites!

That rose is amazing! I once had a yellow rose I loved, and it was truly beautiful - I even wrote a haiku for it, and I think I have a picture that I can't find at the moment! But even my beautiful rose might not have matched yours...

Re: Krisles
K. I must admit sometimes I take a rose petal, they have an intriguing taste. I really like the flowers that are edible, roses, violets, etc. Of course many were used by the Monks for ailments and I suppose a lot of the old gardens still have flowers with a medical value, or even those that would really harm. Love your eyelashes on the petals.Grandma knew a few secrets.

Re Katray
Well Kat one of these mornings there will be a sharp frost and that will put paid to most things. Yes I like this rose it always seems to show a flower defiantly as other plants give up.

Re: Thank you for the lovely yellow rose. And the idea about planting
Yes Pat I hope poor little Chumpet does not become a scapegoat for CC. Not only that with the pots Pat it costs quite a lot to keep refilling them with new compost so I shall have to think of a away to revitalize them without emptying the Bowls.

Re: Wiley
Well he was not my regular one Bro., so I don't l know if I can twist the lady owner's arm. I expect she will want to move the tooth up into a more expensive service.

That rose is breathtaking! My grandmother could grow roses like that....I used to brush just my eyelashes over the petals to feel the softness without bruising it, and I would try to taste the dew drops on them when we went out to cut flowers in her garden. The roses and the hydrangeas, and sweetpeas and glads. Before she lost her legs I always walked with her to cut her flowers. It was definitely like a Fairyland.

Eat well, drink well, keep well!
And give the spine a rest too..:) I like Chumpet's musings; deep but light, roots dreaming to flower. Speaking of flower, the rose is awesome..

Thank you for the lovely yellow rose. And the idea about planting
the heavy pots in one place and not hoisting them about between seasons. Good idea. As for Chumpet - I've begun to form a clearer picture of this little personality...

Re:
Of course Chumpet does not speak a language that we know Kabu, So I translate for him as far as it is possible. Dear fairy, I hope to reveal that you must be living alone amongst mushrooms and trivia. Please do not despair, it may be a common misnomer. I
will let you know what I find or see when I push aside the veil that hides the old ways, of course true believers are not to blame we see what we want to see. Antcha appo copno dount. No she wouldn't do that Chumpet, she would like to adopt you but she has a small tiger.

do take care and stop using chemicals and eating/drinking food that is suspect or carrying heavy stuff about.
Chumpet ...just a word in your ear dear little one. Tis easy to find the fairies. brush the doubt from your heart and the scales off your eyes. We are everywhere.
