  3. Now ‘Gertrude’ is such an ‘eXplosion’ of colour. ‘Precious Memories’ are an ‘eXperience’ never forgotten, and the ‘Iceberg‘ floribunda is so ’eXtremely’ cool.
    But Jane, the dreaded mention of eXtra, causes my poor waistline to give up in ‘eXasperation‘! The thought of OXX and XOX brings me out in a hot sweat.
    Cheers.....B xxxxxxxxxxxx !
