....or an Orchid? They are so lovely and not hard to take care of either. Tell the p-nurse, two ice cubes every other day and good light, even artificial, but not directly in the sun. Too hot. They look good right in the pot you buy them in and the small ones arent more than ten dollars. I scream with delight everytime I get one, but then I am a little nutty . Sorry about your potted rose. I read what happened to it in the other forum
