Angel Face and Sterling Silver


Making no claims that this photo of Angel Face is color correct, I still love it, the rose and the photo. It's really a lilac colored florabunda rose that has a home in my "purple section" of the garden, under the Jacaranda tree. Next to it is my favorite of the purple roses, Sterling Silver, a tea rose with a sweet, strong scent. Don't know what it is about roses and dew drops (or overzealous watering in this case), but these photos really appeal to me. They remind me of early morning forays into the garden during late summer, when watering is essential for plant survival during the warm days. Each of these roses add a sense of coolness to the landscape.
