Garden: October Rosebud

My knockout roses did not bloom well this summer due to the extreme heat. At the end of September, early October, the rosebuds were full of coloration and the buds were formed perfectly and opened into a stunning rose blossom.

I have enjoyed the beauty of the Fall rosebuds and blossoms and have dried them and will place them in clear Christmas ornaments and use them at Christmas time on my tree or on a decorative egg stand on my buffet.
