The roses are wild - planted by birds!
I had been cutting them back every year, knowing how "invasive" even a native can be.
Then I just let them go.
And it's as if they know: here, have a riot of roses, and trust that your sister live on in Nature (somehow).
You bought the book!
Which quote fit - this one?
".... we might need to accept that we don't have the capacity to understand them in our limited human mind and simply trust that these plants will shine a light that will open our hearts towards a healing that we may have not known possible."
I'd love to be with you in Nashville!!!!
