Not a rose....

but the top flower of a beautiful green gladioli I have picked because it leaned over so much, it's face was in the ground!
What a wonderful color to expose and enjoy from it's vase on the table! Hubby can watch the cricket, I'll watch the 'glad'!

Thank you all for your comments. The lighting was natural coming from the side. I like the two colors , green and white.
