We have a lovely florist in Jackson, NH, Dutch Bloemen Winkel. Her work is extraordinary. She's as creative as the cutting edge florists whose online work I've viewed. Her flowers come, primarily, from Holland and the Boston Flower Market where she travels each week to bring back the best.
The photo above is of a centerpiece she created and it makes me think of the beautiful scent of a rose. I have had roses in every garden of every house in which I have lived until we moved to New Hampshire. Their growing span here is limited and rose tending is intense. However, if the yellow rose survives, given to me last Spring by my friends in Bermuda, I will plant it outside. It's fragrance was wonderful as was the delicate yellow bruised with an orange smear.
Roses have a scent all their own and I miss them. Keeping my fingers crossed I will again have a rose bush in my garden.
