Such a wonderful post. I too was a bit resistant to Roses, so many people have them in their gardens for esthetic reasons, even when they live in countries with a very dry climate and roses do love water. But then I began to use them, starting with making my own rose water a few years ago, and it is the only thing I use on my face, bar coconut oil. I love how you describe your relationship with plants I identify with that so much Thank you for this beautiful post full of gratitude xxxxx
