Roses bearing messages of encouragement in petals

OTSUCHI, Japan - A woman looks at roses with messages of encouragement for people in tsunami-hit areas printed on their petals, such as ''Believe in reconstruction,'' at a shelter in Otsuchi, Iwate Prefecture, on June 13, 2011. Flower producers and wholesalers in Yamaguchi Prefecture, who have been donating part of their flower-related revenues for the victims of the March 11 disaster in northeastern Japan, delivered the roses to the shelter in Otsuchi, one of the communities hardest hit by the tsunami.
