Nyman's Fading Rose Garden

As I mentioned in my previous post about my trip to Nymans House and Gardens this weekend, I was surprised to discover how many flowers were still blooming.

This was not the case in the rose garden however, and this bush was the only one that still had a number of flowers on it.

Even so, you can see that the leaves are looking the worst for wear and the roses themselves are most definitely on their way out.

I thought this flower was interesting as it was blooming on a bush, all alone and surrounded by rose hips.

What a stalwart! 😍

This is a sort of throw back post in memory of Hive account@adrianobalan's and Hive account@sardrt Hive account@petals contests which may no longer be running but none the less inspired me to use the Roses Open Weekend tag before the summer is out.
