I bought some roses a couple of days ago and mentioned them in an
earlier post four days ago. It still amazes me, the beauty of roses as the buds unfold. While they looked pretty in bud, there is nothing so fine as a rose in full bloom and even at that point just before petal fall. I think when the roses are finished in the garden, there is nothing better than to buy cut roses and have them in your home. Mind you, my garden roses are anything but finished and David Austin's Wild Eve is just as beautiful as she has been all summer long.

Meanwhile, in the November chilliness of my back garden, Wild Eve is blooming brightly on a north facing fence. Can you ask for more?
