Old-Fashioned Pink Rose: The 119th Flower of Spring & Summer!
[Please scroll down to see three more images! :D]
Wow, there are a LOT of roses!! Wild roses, cultivated roses, old-fashioned roses, hybrid roses, tea roses, climbing roses, miniature roses...need I continue?!!! Holy cow, it's just amazing how many types there are!! On our property alone, we have one wild rose species and five cultivated roses, (Actually, many flowers I have in my flower count are in the rose family, though they aren't specifically roses!)
This beauty grows behind our house, next to our deck, and this year it really went crazy with countless fragrant blossoms! I couldn't stop taking pictures, so I picked four of my favorites to share...I hope you like them! :)
Old-fashioned roses (also known as antique roses) tend to be hardier than modern roses and are usually smaller but almost always have a wonderful fragrance. These roses are much closer related to their wild cousins and so they usually bloom in bunches, not in singles which are usually found in modern varieties. Their colors tend to be less dramatic too, but they are gorgeous nevertheless. Unlike modern roses, old fashioned roses grow on plants that are attractive and often form dense bushes used for hedges or trained into beautiful climbing forms.
If you would like to know more about old-fashioned roses, I found a very nice page about them here: Rose Info: Antique Roses
By the way, I've uploaded two other pictures today and I hope you'll visit them too!
Thanks to all of you who have visited and have left comments and favorites! I try to go to all of your pages within a day or two and is a highlight for me to see your beautiful photography! :)
