Morning, Sandy, Bushie and others.
Thanks for the comments. I have heightened senses as a result of panic/anxiety disorder. Sometimes life is poetic sometimes not so. Along with my habit of reading, I use those senses to describe my surroundings and people - almost forensically some might say.
Oh and I must acknowledge the introduction to my life of this wonderful book when I was 6 years old.

Bushie......it's amazing how hardy are roses. We could just say that they have been "heeled" for the past 6 months or so.
Of the photo in the two-tone challenge, I could almost smell them. ***sniff ***Mmmmmmmmmmm.
Speaking of smells....b3 will have the opportunity soon (along with Lurker) of that wonderful scent of a freshly bathed baby.

Good morning
DEB I agree re roses, tough as nails they are lol I am now more into veggie growing/using the land more productively , so the main rose garden had to go. I tend to prefer native shrubs, encourage more birds and bees/far less maintenance/pest probs/ less water required etc etc Took this pic a cpl of days ago, all the roses are now moved so the bed is ready for top soiling and Spring planting

Morning you two girls and others.
You don't mean gone gone, Bushie? Only transplanted I hope. I have experienced roses coping with dryness quite well and sometimes the actual watering can lead to fungal problems. And they do come back after periods of neglect. Just a little aside for anyone - when cutting for the flowers, I semi-prune as I go and shorten the stems for the appropriate vase size later
Sandy, you will be like a machine today. Don't forget to maintain the oil and other requirements that an engine needs - and not too much revving-up with the tyres screeching.
