Observations, pictures, and sketches highlight the transition of moving to the nations's Capitol after 30 years of living in the Midwest. A clash in cultures? Maybe not!

Miniature Roses
We have a lot of green house plants. It is very green, so we got a miniature rose plant from Giant several weeks ago to add a bit of drama. The blooms lasted for over a week. Then the plant started looking sad. So my husband took it upon himself to nurture this plant. He has been bringing it over to the west facing window every day from the console table, and making sure it’s getting enough water. Apparently these little plants stop flowering in September. Now, after all the loving care it has received, several buds appeared and now they are all back in bloom - and there is one more in the making. So I took some photos of the roses - each one is a little different dusty rose color than the next. We used to get cut flowers every week or two and put them in the wall vase and the console vase to add more color. This little rose plant replaced that option and has surprised us both. After these blooms fade we are going to try and keep it going. The results for my husband’s efforts were stunning!
