Some of you might remember this. A lovely early December dinner party with close friends. The sweetheart roses weren’t expensive: $9 a bunch, but worth millions in early winter cheer. And those silly cordial glasses we never use made great vases for them.
Orange sweetheart roses lined up with candles on my December table.
The next day, I cut the stems (remember, with roses you need to cut the stems under water, to keep air bubbles from forming), refreshed the water and placed all the little vases along my kitchen window sill. They warded off early winter chill.

But I do like crimson-pink. Especially in March when the first snowdrops are still weeks away.
