My favorite flower has always been the rose. Their charming, alluring, and passionate selves have always been a representation of my love. Unless you value your ownership of them more than their development alongside you, at which point you will decide to deprive them of their cherished nature, restriction their freedom, and ultimately, their ability to grow. Then they start being frugal and unproductive. It is thus up to you. The choice is yours: the water or the thorns. If you do not treat them with dignity and compassion, you will eventually lose. My roses are meant for someone who takes pleasure in caring for them, not merely picking them; if you can not handle that kind of love, perhaps they are not for you.
