Well, I’ve stopped with the bromeliads and “disgusting” figs, and I’m back to beautiful roses. This is another photo of the spiral rose.
All I can say is that I think this rose is really, really beautiful–and I give thanks every day for the beauty around me, for the eyes to see it, the camera to capture it, and the computer to process it. This rose has beautiful bits.
