Thank you for the rose from your bush that I was sure was dead!!!! This one blossom is spectacular and there's a small bud lingering and will probably open soon. Last Fall, remember, you sent me a few late bloomers. I was so very grateful and had decided then that this bush was dying and would be dead by this Spring. And, She looked dead with two brown stalks, no green in sight. I placed a Goddess figurine a sister had made for me from clay at the base of the bush after I cut down the stalks finally. I figured it couldn't hurt to have a bit of that kind of energy sourcing the roots, if in fact they were still alive. Low and behold a few days later, green shoots began to come up from the base of the figurines feet! Days and days I've been watching these green shoots grow into two new stalks, then leaf out and then two buds, one on each stalk! I have been talking to them every day, encouraging them to open up. Finally, finally a few days ago, this one in the photo curled open. She is huge and so full of the most wonderful smell.
This bush has come back....maybe just for now, just for these two buds. For them, for you, I am most deeply grateful. I speak my love for you into the blossom every day as I breathe you in!
Blessed blessed be.
My love, my love.
