Picked this afternoon, the first Double Delight rose for Spring. Need I tell you that it not only looks delightful, but it also has a super-delightful perfume too. It's sitting here looking beautiful, beside my computer. So it is mine to share, Double Delight, three times over; I couldn't decide which image I liked the best, can you?

ReplyDeleteStunning colors! Wow!
ReplyDeleteDouble Delight is my very favorite rose. It has incredible form and fragrance, and no two blooms are alike. I wish I had room for more. I only have two but they are precious. Beautiful close-up shots.
ReplyDeleteI think you need at least two views to get the overall beauty of this rose (it reminds me of the peace rose). What a wonderful fragrance to have right next to you!
