Spring is here to reign. The rose bushes pruned and looking eyesore a month back have yet again embraced their eminence in every garden. The bushes with tender leaves are covered with thousands of buds. Some buds are in primary stage, some barely open, while some of them are basking in full glory. Irrespective of their flowering stage, each of them are poised to attract the attention of the beholders. The plethora of colors, texture, size, pattern and fragrance are adding to the vernal ebullience and resplendence. Have a visual treat...
Freedom and fresh air is vital for everyone. Seems, even for a rose bud. This nonconformist maroon bud peeps out from the fence for a better sunbath.
Also, these roses........
I am so glad to do justice with the fabulous roses...the mesmerizing color of the intricately arranged velvety petals left me spell-bound, besotted. I mused, rightfully it is decorated with the 'queen of the flowers' epithet..No other flower could have surpassed it in elegance...................
Two half-abloom maroon roses peeping from a neighbor's white picket fence..........
A fabulous bunch of roses displayed at the mall...........
A lovely, captivating, pink with hint of orange shade rose bud abloom in Heisler Park, Laguna Beach......
When I was a kid, we had some of this rose bushes in our front yard. I loved gazing at the striped pink and white patterns in the petals. I had no clue about the variety. Now, I know it was a Ferdinand Pichard rose variety. I see a couple of these bushes in my neighborhood abloom with equally fabulous flowers. Driven my nostalgia, I pause for a while to admire and soak in its beauty.
An almost black rose....
Exquisite is the word...
