Love that rose! I have a dozen of the bright orange ones on my kitchen counter, right now. Sad to say store-bought and not home-grown but fresh flowers are a Little Luxury I can’t life without. :)
Oh, I agree. My daughter got me into the habit of always having fresh flowers in the house - there are a few months where I don’t have roses and have to buy them - a pricey habit for sure.
That, and I don’t like cutting my own roses for the house - I prefer to see them in the garden.
Our grocery store manager puts flowers on sale at the end of their sale by date for just a few dollars, so I scout those out every week. I like how you said they are a Little Luxury you can’t life without. I feel the same way!
