Blue rose

Our next doors garden has a blue rose bush still flowering with buds yet to come. At the rate we are going with this mild spell and temps of 13c, I think we may see them flowering on Christmas Day!!
Nice on black

Thank you for all your comments and favs all are much appreciated

Such a beautiful flower

I seem to see colours differently sometimes - this is mauve to me! Nice shot!

[Margaret Obey]

I, like Hazel can see mauve. My dad and I always argued over blue and green!

It is a mauve colour Hazel but is classed as a blue rose. I ve never seen a really true blue one but I dare say someone will prove me wrong!!:-))

Lovely shot.

@ceilidh
As I said to Hazel, it is mauve but when I was selling them years ago it was classed as a blue rose. I think this one is called 'blue moon'.

So clear and detailed.

Such a lovely shot and pretty colors.

You just might see them on Christmas. Lovely shot. We were in the 70's (F) and right now it's 33 on my front porch. Supposed to go back up to 70 for Christmas!

Lovely details and soft color

Quite pretty on black - nice close-up shot.

Such a pretty shot! I love the colour of those petals.

[Taffy]

I love the way this tells the story of the flower's life, in a single bud.

Lovely rose and such a great colour. It's so weird these warm temperatures. Our garden thinks it's Spring already!

[Sam]
