Last blooms

It always seems so sad to prune roses when there are blooms on said roses 🙁  … and I’m always late in this yearly chore, but roses are forgiving and bloom anyway around October time.

Sooo .. in a vase the last blooms go …

I have about six more Icebergs still to prune, but the cold crept in as evening approached and darkness falls early at this time of the year.   They will have to wait ’til next weekend
