Of Pips and Petals in Autumn

It is mid-autumn and the days are getting shorter. But they are not really cooling, with daytime temperatures still reaching the lower 30 degrees Celsius. The rosarium is clearly changing with the season. The plants are healthy and there will be good new growth to work with come pruning time.


Beautiful blooms abound in spite of aphids and rose beetles and a walk down the pipped pathways is as always, a delight. I had to capture the autumn blooms and luckily that I did, because Sunday another hot day, was too much for the blooms and they scorched.
