Japanese crossword «Rose»

Brilliant!!!

Beautiful, intricate, and very challenging - thank you for this puzzle!

Good challenge, very satisfying. Thanks.

I really enjoyed this puzzle. The first half was so tricky, but once you get past that the rest of it flows so nicely, it feels like a reward for all your early work :) Lovely pic, thank you!

Great picture, challenging but fun to solve. Spasibo!

First time I have had to guess a few times to get started...just lovely!

There's a lot of going on in the first half.
No guesses or hints needed but tricky still.
This is how nono's are meant to be. Nice!
Last but not least, I can nearly smell the pic.

Very nice - thank you :))

one of the trickiest puzzles here, really fun to solve. thanks!!!

Love is a rose but you better not pick it
It only grows when it's on the vine
A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it ...

A handful of thorns is what I had here for a long time. This is one of the most difficult puzzles I've encountered here.

Wow! Great!

Very nice.. Thank you

This one feels like a little puzzle box! It felt so good when it finally cracked open
