Honeysuckle Rose, along with her best friend and half sister,
Tiger's L'ily, arrived here in the summer of 2008. My most hearfelt
thanks to Heather Marciello for entrusting me with two of the
stars of her breeding program. Rosie reminds me so much of her
paternal half sister, Heidi (ARMCH Fairlea Heidi *D E)--not just
in her appearance, particularly her fabulous mammary system, but
also in her calm, affectionate personality. She has very quickly
become one of my absolute favorites--I just love everything about
her. We are lucky enough to have also purchased her 2008 daughter,
Daffodill (who is the self-appointed spokesperson for the current
group of coming-yearlings).
