For Catholics, October is special to Mother Mary because
it is the month dedicated to the Rosary. Just recently, our
family hosted the annual Block Rosary for a week. October
is also a month when the headily fragrant rosal (gardenia)
blooms in abundance. So whenever I find one, I pluck a
rosal to place in our garden grotto.

Gardenias in October!

I was in San Francisco and after 20 years they still sell gardenias near the trolley stop downtown.

I love the smell of Rosal/Gardenias. We used to have a bush in our garden growing up.
