Flowers From Our Yard: Perfume Delight Rose



(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it. Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

Although we had below-freezing temperatures last weekend, some of our roses are continuing to delight us with blossoms. Perfume Delight not only looks beautiful, it earned its name because of a delightful fragrance.

Some of my flowers must be the kind that love cold weather as some are still blooming and it has been down in the upper 20s at night. With heavy frost.

I don't have anything to compare with the brightness of your rose, and it is a beauty.

Amazing that you still have some rose blooms in this weather.

The pink in the centre is almost florescent. Very bright and cheerful.
