Frost, ice and snow cover the last of the rose leaves.
This is a photo that I took in my garden near the beginning of January after we’d had a huge snow storm. I went outside in the morning and everything was so beautiful … you know that silence that falls after a snow storm. The dense snow seems to muffle sound leaving a profound silence all around. This is especially strange when you are in the heart of a huge city!
Believe it or not this is a rose. It’s a rose from the Romantica series called Yves Piaget. Isn’t it lovely?
This rose has a beautiful light scent as well. That only makes it all the more enjoyable.
This is one of the newer roses in my garden. It’s called Chicago Peace and it’s a hybrid tea. Isn’t it lovely? I figured that a rose with the word peace in it would make a great first post for 2008 as I wish everyone health, happiness and peace for the new year.
This pretty pink bloom is of a Tiffany Rose. I’ve grown this rose for about four years in my garden and this past summer it did better than it ever did growing taller than it had in the past and produced more blooms. I believe I’d moved it slightly the year before and I think it likes it’s sunnier position a bit better.
Some say this rose has a beautiful scent, but I don’t find that it has much scent at all. Still it’s a beauty and I’m happy to have it take some space in my garden.
