The Parisian Roses posing by the front window blind with the sunlight streaming through.The white rose has lasted and is sat in a glass of water with sugar in it. The red roses has faded a bit with the central heating.
Its like a still life the photo. I read that on Valentines Day the price of Red Roses went sky high from £10 to £60 for ten!
I have six Roses growing outside in the Garden. Two Tea Bushes, two floribunda, and two climbing roses. Red, orange, peach, yellow, white, and pink. They all have new leaves growing on the bare stems. Spring is getting closer :)

From my Fortune cookie from the Chinese take away last night at work, It has a succinct night staff quote:
"For every dark night, there is a brighter day"
The photo is of the gorgeous Lady Emma Hamilton Peach coloured rose, taken in Harlow Carr on my last visit. It did not win the David Austin vouchers so im going to blog my best entrys. I love this roses colour, and strong scent.
I would have bought one of these rose bushes with the voucher. The roses he grows are sumptuous, and I think every garden needs at least one rose species!

An old picture of the Rosebush that was in flower today on the way home from work. Even after the house owners cut all the pink roses off, it has had a second flush.
White Rabbit! Its the first of November (Where does the time go to?)
