A Real Beauty.....

This is one of the roses that I saw at the rose garden in Duluth, Minnesota. The colors are so marvelous and the flower is yet a simple shape. The rose garden had over 1200 different roses in their collection. It was so windy and cold and we needed to head home so I didn't get names. When I return, I am going to photograph the name plaque right before I take the rose picture.

Gosh thanks for the heads up! I did not know about their great collection of roses. I will have to google the location and pick a cloudy cool day to go! It is about 3 1/2 hours from us..I have to get a little stronger first. This getting old and sick crap is for the birds. I have been doing lots of Wildflowers, I have to make sure and photograph the leaves and stems too..for ID if I am not sure. It really makes a difference if you take lots of photos. And I do..but summer is only so long, and then the flowers will be gone:)
