Update on the giant 16 cm #rose bloom. She opened her petals back on the 20th of April, so she's getting a little long in the bloom now and some of her petals are wrinkled, but she hasn't dropped any yet. I caught her looking her best this morning, with the dew still on her.

I also took a wider shot showing how her younger siblings are coming along. A couple are starting to open, and one shows promise of also being a giant.

A large rose blossom, 16 cm across. The flower is delicately tinted in pink and coral and gold, framed by a corona of healthy leaves. The butt end of a grey cat is visible on the ground, slightly out of focus.
