Rain, Rain, go away!!!

I planted roses in a bucket 2 months ago. I bought them, after reading the label: "Blooms in June - August. Shocking Pink long stemmed roses". It was just a bag of dirt with a thorny stick protruding.

I suck at gardening. The best I've ever done was keep an African Violet plant for a year, but now that I have cats that eat plastic shopping bags and any plant regardless of danger, I no longer have inside flowers. The roses reminded me of the ones I carried down the aisle. I had always dreamed of a solid bouquet of bright pink rose blooms, with white silk and pearls. I got my wish.

So imagine my delight when the first blooming bud appeared two days ago! Yay! I can grow a Rose!!!
