Day 4: Thorny

The roses are blooming! I’ve kept a close eye on them since they caught the bite last year (aka Rosette Disease, click through for some disgusting pictures—especially “excessive thorns”). We’ll see if these can survive, or if I’ll have to dig them up next season. Huge bummer, though, since they were one of the first plants we put in the ground when we bought the house!
