November roses


When we moved into this house in 2000, Audrey planted a rose bush for us in the back yard. The bush needed its regular cutting-back, and I finally got around to doing it earlier this month. There were all these beautiful fresh blossoms at the ends that weren't being enjoyed, since we're no longer out in the back yard; so I made this bouquet from them. Somehow they seem even more beautiful because they bloomed in a month that is usually so dreary.

  1. Wow!!! Stunning arrangement of gorgeous flowers! Would make an incredible painting! And as you say, realizing that they are November roses makes them all the more special.
