173/366: Orange & Red Rosebud

The Harry & David rose garden is brimming with flowers of every color and shade. I loved the multiple hues in this one, which ranges from red to almost yellow! If you look at the sepals (the odd things hanging down from the bud), you'll notice they appear to be fuzzy, and in fact are quite soft to the touch. Sepals protect the bud as its forming, and then fold back to expose the bud when it's ready to open! :)
