A rose by any other name....

This is NOT photoshopped, it's not a fake....it's my last rose of the season! I took this photo with my new camera, a Olympus Stylus, 10 megapixels...this camera has MORE options than my $3000 Nikon D200 the PD bought me for crime scene photography...ENJOY!

Beautiful Dennis! I miss my rose garden but I do have one lone hardy yellow one left that smells like heaven. Does that beauty have a smell?

That's beautiful, Dennis! My roses always lose their leaves, and I end up with lovely blooms
on bare canes!

I have the same problem and it's from the rust spots that mine get from the humidity. I spray a fungicide on them to try and avoid it.

Dennis - I can SMELL that rose from here! Absolutely beautiful! :D I have a rose bush that gives me roses that look like yours, but not as big as that.

Stunning!

Brings back memories of my lovingly-tended rose garden which I nurtured in Downers Grove, IL from 1989 to 1998.
