This is a beautiful arrangement of roses to give...just because.  The voluptuous look of the roses with their heavenly scent are accented with the velvet touch of 'Dusty Miller' and the lacy fingers of 'Seeded Eucalyptus'.  If you are lucky like me, you might have a good friend with a bed of beautiful roses that might let you snip a few as a focal point.  For step by step photos and instructions click here: http://www.floristinyou.com/just-because-david-austin-roses
