I first fell in love with Rose Moss in Liberal, Kansas. My family moved there in the fall of 1958 when I was in the second grade. My parents bought their first house and painted it Sunset Coral. There was a small triangular flowerbed between the driveway, sidewalk and front steps. There my mother planted rose moss. The colors went with the house and I was enthralled with those tiny little roses. Today they fill the stone birdbath in my tiny yard and a little flower bed by the front door. If I could only have one plant, I'm pretty sure I would pick Rose Moss.
