Raindrops on Roses Really Are One of My Favorite Things

I've just found this picture on my harddrive, and I suddenly want to plant a new rosebush in the garden.

I took this last year, in my apartment at school. My poor roses are dormant now. I think I need to fertilize them and see if they're as hardy as our rosebushes. My green thumb is more brown when it comes to keeping potted plants alive.

Although my herbs are doing pretty well! I may need to put my fresh basil to use and make a pizza sometime next week.
