We've had several nights with temperatures below freezing, but so far we haven't had a killing frost. As a result some of our roses are continuing to bloom -- they don't pay much attention to the calendar. This blossom on our Peace rose opened yesterday (Sunday). The colors are a little darker than they usually are, but I still think it's a beautiful rose.

It is a beautiful rose and I like the way you captured the light shining on it.
The colors, the lighting - just beautiful. After the turmoil of the last couple of weeks, the beauty just spoke to my heart. Thank you for posting this today!
Still looks beautiful to me :-)
Take care and have a nice day :-)
Thanks for your recent comment on My Blog
Good, your roses don't pay much attention to the calendar.
Great shot.
This is gorgeous and even more so because of the time of year it is.
It so nice that you have been able to enjoy your roses for so long this year.
Warm here today. 70!!!
I think I read once that this rose is the alltime favorite hybird tea rose in America if not world wide. And well deserved.
no kiddin. It's gorgeous!!
If you keep the roots warm and fertilized, they bloom for a very long time. Mine bloomed to the end of January after I put my rabbit droppings over it with straw. This you collect in spring but in winter they keep the flower bush really warm.
Ah, Thats an old rose name George, I remember selling those at Tesco supermarket 27 yrs ago.
Marvelous details! I can almost feel the texture.
Peace Roses are my most favorite of all roses!

Roses from this time of year amaze me. Their color always seems so much more vibrant.
This is a stunning photograph, George of a really lovely rose! Love the way the light just "kisses" the petals.
Beautiful rose... loved!
