Mother's Day, searching for Red & White roses to illustrate an old Mother's Day Tradition - wearing a red rose pinned to lapels to indicate one's mother was still living, a white one for one who was already in heaven, I found that one of Dr. John Burns Horton's favorite sayings was that "Roses don't like wet feet," and bright red and healthy whites were in short supply this year.
