Rose - "Oklahoma"(click to enlarge photo)
The year's last rose from this bush in my garden. Not only are the petals beautiful, but the blossoms have a heady rose fragrance; a lovely combination.

Ask me no more where Jove bestows
When June is past, the fading Rose;
For in your beauty's orient deep
These flowers, as in their causes, sleep.[song]
I sometimes think that never blows so red
The Rose as where some buried Ceasar bled.[The Rubaiyat]
And etc etc.
Thank you for being so quick to read my new post. I have had to return it to draft so that my daughter FFF can tidy it up for me.

A rose by any other name would surely smell as sweet. Oklahoma is such a beauty! One of my favourites.
What a beautiful rose. We have camellias and encore azaleas right now. Looks more like spring than fall.
