Today’s Flowers: The Drooping White Rose

October 5, 2008 | Filed Under Flowers, Roses, Today's Flowers 

This photo is not upside down.  Instead, the rose is drooping.  I took the photo at the end of summer, not long ago, and it was clear that the flower was on its last leg.  It’s end was very near.
