What a beautiful rose, and a special heirloom from Ben. I so glad the neighbors let you have it!

That is so sweet of them , I often wonder who my next neighbors will be like because Carol would like to sell in a few years..and I love her!
Hi Diane, Glad you finally got your rose... I'm SURE it will grow....With Ben's blessing, you know it will. Keep us posted!!!!

I love a flower with a story!
I just caught up on your last few posts because I've been away - that tornado was scary!
It will do good for you Diane! I have faith in you my dear...
I loved your basket of flowers on that darling chair. What a gorgeous picture.

I'm looking forward to future updates on this rose!
Stay cool,

Hi Diane, I wanted to thank you for your last comments over on mudderbear. You are so sweet. My birthday was yesterday, the 23rd. I turned 62 and that makes me eligible for Social Security checks, which just blows my mind. I have never sat around planning on what to do with those. My husband, Steve's, birthday is in January and his birthdays hit me harder than my own. Funny, huh? But I love the more relaxed life with time to enjoy so much.
Good luck with your special rose. How nice to have one with memories of your friend to go with it. It will grow. I can't imagine it not growing for someone as caring as you are. You will have beautiful blooms in no time.
How special Diane! I know it will simply thrive there for you with Ben looking down over it. :c)
ahhhh, I know you miss Bean. It will be nice to have a little piece of him in your yard. xobean
