Today's Flowers # 43

My friend Luiz from Brazil does the Today's Flowers Meme, check it out. Come and join with your flower photos. Sunday at 4 GMT is the post time.

Today I wanted to show my daughter "D" rose bush. The roses are a salmon and yellow color. She has this rose hidden along the garage and I think it should have a more prominent place among her flowers. Maybe it would be better at my house. what do you think?
The rose has a beautiful mixture of colors and it shows really well.
I think this shot of the flower is a real winner with the bud next to the full bloom. I am very happy with this shot.
I do hope you enjoyed the blooms and want to see what others have shown.

That is an unusual color - and a lovely rose! And I agree with you, this rose should not be hidden in any way!

Salmon colour was right - they look good enough to eat!

Love the colors of your daughter's rose.

OK, I'm jealous...they're beautiful and I love the color. I tried roses but didn't have much luck. I think its to humid here in south Florida.

Nice Tom, looks like you have some rose envy. We've got a great park in Columbus, called the Park of the Roses, that previously hosted a rose festival around mid-june. The recession has killed the festival this year, but the gardens there are still tended and have amazing collections of roses. Any size, type, shape, color. I hope to get there sometime soon.

I do agree Tom. It will look MUCH nicer in your garden. :) A beautiful rose, but then, which one isn't? :)

Arija said...

You are so right, a bud or a bee always enhance a head on shot. Nice rose, what's stopping you putting in a few dozen in your garden as well?

Anonymous said...

I think the last one with the bud is a winner as well, the color is awesome!

Tom said...

These are stunning.. such a great colour..

That is a lovely rose. You are a great photographer, too. Those photos would look good in frames.
