The Charming Story Behind This Rose: Photo Of The Day

ALAMEDA, CA — Lorraine Robles shared a photo of a beautiful rose along with the charming story behind it. "My good friend gave me an Honor rose plant that she started from just a stem. It grew and provided this beautiful white rose just in time for Mother’s Day. I was honored."

Honor roses are prized for their fragrance, beauty and use as a cut flower.

Thank you for submitting your photo, Lorraine.
