06Jun2013: Photo 157

Last year I bought 4 rose plants that flowered well, and I cut them back following all instructions I could find, and hoped for the best for this year. I haven't been disappointed. They have grown very well and have lots of buds on them now. This photo is of the bud closest to flowering today. I had another go at isolating the colour to only the flower head, and like the result. I'm sure I will post more of the roses as they flower even more.
