You have taken a beautiful photo of a beautiful rose.
It got one of my votes, I really like the color and ruffled petals.
May I ask what rose that is?

Thank you very much. The rose is named "Brass Band".

That is one gorgeous picture of one gorgeous rose. Well done.

Thank you Paul. I ordered it from Rogue Valley Roses (2014) and was placed on a waiting list (for 1 yr.). I received the band in May 2015 and it bloomed the first year. The photo was taken this past summer. You will love it!

I already added it to my want list
but my list is rather long so it may be a year or two before I find one.

Just looked at the pictures of Brass Band on the data base and see that your excellent picture isn't there. You ought to add it.......

Paul - thanks for the reminder. I have a few photos I would like to add to the database. With Christmas around the corner and spending time with 2 beautiful grandsons, it looks like adding the photos is turning into a winter project. By the way, Brass Band sailed through the winter with no problems and no black spot this summer.

Cinda, I could not locate Brass Band anywhere. That's why I went on the Rogue Valley waiting list. It will take about a year.
Thanks very much for the acorn - very nice of YOU.
