Chapter 141
You select the choice that says “English Rose”. The magical barrier disappears and you see an assortment of English Roses shrubs, from one to five feet high. Tough they can grow up to twenty feet high if you remember well. They also vary in width from two to four feet. Just as for the lilies, rose flowers come in different colours and grow in partial to full sunlight. You recall that roses like their soil within a pH range of 5.5 to 7.0, lots of water but not drowning and that dragon dung can be used as fertilizer and so the rose become accustomed to magic.
You remember an article talking about the fact that only pure rose oil should be used for medicinal purposes and only after consulting a healer to get proper usage and dosage details. It had also cautioned about some vendors corrupting the oil by diluting it, allowing them to sell it at lower cost. The same piece had enumerated the 40 medicinal uses of rose oil. You try to recall some of them and you come with: rose tea helps relieve stress, it is used in love potions, to treat stomach problems, sore throats and depression. You also remember that roses can be used to add flavour to other medicines.
After another minute looking at all your beautiful roses and taking in your entire greenhouse, you head back to the front, put away the protective equipment and make your way outside.
