    Here are three that I have to share.

    Silverado

    Crazy One

    Brigadoon

    Something caught my eye in these pictures. It looks to me like in comparing my Silverado with ramblinrosez's Silverado, the opposite direction effect of petal winding is showing up again. It is apparent in mine that the petals are winding counter-clockwise while in the the other one they are winding clockwise if you look at the very center. Even though it is two different bushes hundreds of miles apart, the variety is the same. I just find it interesting that it happens. Do you see what I am talking about?

    Hi Bustopher,

    Interesting,...I never really notice the direction at which a rose would be winding around to but perhaps it is the direction in which it is facing, mine is facing North northeast, which way is your bloom facing?

  • the_bustopher z6 MO

    My Silverado was facing pretty much straight up. I have posted some pictures before of two roses on the same bush even blooming at the same time with their petals winding in opposite directions. The majority of the time the petals wind in a certain way. Once in a while one winds the other direction. Some try to wind in both directions which leads to what is called a split center. Why this happens I do not know. I just find it an interesting observation.

    This is Gemini. We had really cold weather when I took this shot. So the colors are really dark.

    This is Queen of Sweden. I'm fairly new to taking pictures, plus I have a neurological problem which makes me nearly fall over as I'm taking each picture. So taking pictures is challenging!! :)

    Nice pics, Angel Face!

    To post more than one picture in a single post you have to have some kind of on line photo storage account. Like Photobucket, Shutterfly, Flickr, Picture Trail, Picassa, etc., there are a lot of different ones to choose from. You upload your photos there and then copy their "html" code and paste it into you post here. You can post as many as you want that way.

    I'm a renter of this house with 8 rose bushes, but I LOVE them like they're my own!

    This was difficult--I only have a fraction of the photos many of you have, and I just struggled to narrow it down to three. You see, my 15 year old granddaughter, Clare takes wonderful photos. All credit to her. Nana

    Here's Angel Face.
