A Frosty Morning - Heirloom Roses .. AT MY ROSE GARDEN

The first frost of the season for 2015 has arrived, brushing the lawns and roses with a faint touch of ice.  As soon as the sun rose, the gossamer-fine frost quickly melted ..  



All that was left, were droplets of moisture on the roses and leaves, glistening in the crisp early morning light. 



Devoniensis blooms are weighed down with their burden of melted ice drops, pretty as a picture.



Crepuscule, named for the colours of a sunset, is blooming brightly,glinting in the sun.


The exquisite, tiny blooms of the Tea, Marie Lambert, peep out under leaves covered in droplets.


And Mrs B R Cant's extravagantly layered blooms glisten in the early light of the day.


Is there anything prettier than a crisp, clear Autumn morning glistening in the early morning sun after the frost has left it's light touch?   Perhaps not ..
