Description
This is a pink rose in full bloom that I happened upon one December morning on a stroll through Angra Gardens in Angra do Heroismo.
I love winter in the Azores. The weather there is mild, and never very cold, so spring flowers tend to bloom most of the year. Also, because most of the trees on the island are Evergreens, winter never takes on the dull and dreary grayness that comes with naked trees and snow covered everything. Instead, winter on Terceira is a lush, vibrant green, dotted with specks of vibrant and colorful flowers.
Angra Garden is a beautiful little retreat right in the center of Angra do Heroismo, and it is planted with flowers and trees and other plants from all over the world. I love the rose bushes, and in particular, I thought this was an incredibly beautiful rose in both color and shape. It reminded me of a sunrise because there is a very subtle orange center, and the petals begin there, then fade into this lovely bright pink. Pink is always lovely against green because they are natural complements on the color wheel. In this photograph, you can see the delicate texture of the petals, and little drops of water from the night shower.
