As I was watering the roses this morning, one particular bloom really caught my eye. It was a white bloom on one of my 'Queen Elizabeth' seedlings, and it got me thinking about firing up my virtual time machine consisting of two pieces: home computer and digital camera. We can look back to June 14th of 2009 when I took a photo of this rose's first bloom, when the plant was just 2½ months old. Then we'll zoom forward 6+ years to today to see what it was that caught my eye --
