"Knock Out" rose.......


Another photo of my yellow Knock Out Rose.  It really does photograph well.  This rose tends to have a weathered look once it opens.  A camera on macro setting can redeem it a little.
Our blogger was down for almost 24 hours so I haven't been able to comment on anyone's blog. Maybe I can work double fast to catch up with viewing your wonderful posts.

An aptly named rose. It's a beauty.
Blogger was down here too, so I'm not sure what the deal was.

It is beautiful, Larry. I like the way the petals curl, giving the flower more character.
Blogger was OK for me, except that now when I visit certain blogs I have to put my password in twice.

A "knock out" for sure, Larry. Lovely shade of yellow.

The rose is so pretty. And it looks so delicate and dainty. It "knocked me out" for a minute.

  The flowers are getting a gentle rain this morning.  It  makes the soil and sub soil happier as our drought is less these days.
