We all know that roses bloom in June in the UK, when it is warm and sunny.
Oops, got that wrong, didn’t I? This shows the contrast of Christmas red and green. The flowers look a little worse for wear in this shot – but they soon perked up once the snow had gone. (Taken in December)
Further details of the challenge, and lots more entries can be found here.

They flower almost every month of the year. They are amazing.
I love that. It is so delicate.
A particularly good colour for them to be if they are going to flower in winter!

I had roses blooming also in December. They were featured in the Argus newspaper!
It was an odd winter, wasn’t it (I’m in Hampshire, by the way)
love the delicate petals against the harsh winter

Love the contrast. The colors of red and green, a reminder of the happy and warm times of the Holidays, and the white snow, a symbol of cold, sometimes lonely Winter. Beautiful my friend…
