Impressions from my terrace:

The first three are the only rose that we have there. Long-time followers will recognize it as "Spirit of Freedom", and remember that the ashes of our beautiful cat Tiger, who died in 2017, is buried in that pot.

The roses smeel like our cat Tiger 🥹

The last photo is of a thistle. I love thistles, they are such an amazing and beautiil species. When I came across a thistle in a garden center last year, I had to get it. Of course, the first year wasn't that great for her, but as you can see this year she has arrived and is showing all her glory, as if to say "look I. Celeste Aurora, ain't I beautiful?" (Yes you are, you beauty, yes you are!!)
