Took some close-ups today that I wanted to share---G.

1&2--MY favorite Rose (again!)--"Sweet Surrender"--macro of bloom.
Note how "bunched up" the center if the bloom is. It usually has 2 whorls.
Wonder if anyone ever counted the number of petals???

3--"Proud Land" Rose bloom macro---a bit out-of-focus--sorry...the wind was blowing..
4--This plain, pink Peony just mesmerizes me--it is almost neon when you take a photo.
And--that touch of white (?) all around the edges.....this has been around forever....
but I have never noticed this 'white edging" before. Can it evolve????
5--Estonian Clematis--"Piilu"--(Little Duckling)--small blooms and can take part shade.
It grows in a big pot on my patio.
