Every year, June 12th marks Red Rose Day. As America’s favorite flower, it is only fitting that it receives its own celebration. Red roses signify love, and are among the most popular flowers for couples celebrating their weddings, especially in the summer. They can be seen everywhere – from the finest florist to street vendors, everybody understands and appreciates the dignified beauty of a dozen red roses.  A June setting for Red Rose Day is very appropriate, as this is by far the most popular month for weddings. And, they are in bloom in the gardens across America this month.

Didn’t someone say that… ” Yes…pictures of Clay are always good.”
