Dark red Oklahoma rose
Since I fed my roses the nasty food they love so much, they have rewarded me with better color, bigger flowers, the works. I did add alfalfa meal, so maybe that’s why they look so good now. Late in the season, but I’ll take it! This deliciously dark red Oklahoma rose is one of my favorites. Isn’t the bubbly looking background fun? Just set that aperture wide and there you go!

What a gorgeous shade of red! September and October are usually good months for our roses, too.

What a “delicious” dark red and yes, that bubbly background is fun!

The colour of that rose is magical. No wonder we call that ‘blood red’.
