Miniature Rose


 I love roses, but never really tried to plant them. I didn't try to plant them for their thorns and for my impatience. I am not very patient... Once or twice my Mom planted roses. She has green thumbs, and the roses she planted usually grow, not always...but some could survive. But when it's time to enjoy the flowers, there would be people come to ask for the flower petals because they need them for "visiting graves" or for medication... So... we only ended up enjoying the leaves and the thorns.

Three months ago, Rias, my office mate, gave me roses cuttings. They were pink baby roses. It could only survive for a month. Couple weeks ago, I accompanied a friend to a nursery, and I saw this miniature roses. I bought one and place it at my balcony, where it can get sun shine from morning until down. It's been 3 weeks since then, and the flowers are blooming....
