I see a few raindrops! Roses in winter don't grow in Philly, though, this past year was the 'winter that wasn't', John.

We didn't have a permafrost. Our family physician has so many people complaining of the early allergy season (Including moi!LOL<:))

LOVE the white background...bring out the beautiful petal folds, My Friend!! #10170779
