Rosa ‘Louis Riel’ – a real gem found at the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park and Zoo (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan) in July of last year. Love the blue-green foliage and the pure white single flowers! I’m not quite sure what the tag-along insect is on the uppermost bloom.
Flowery Prose 
Beautiful flowers, have a wonderful holiday weekend.
I hope your weekend was lovely as well!
Beautiful photo! I can’t quite make out the insect either.
It seems the general consensus is that it’s a spider of some sort…but I can’t seem to spot all the legs to be sure! 🙂
So lovely, they look like they’re made of fine porcelain. 🙂
I love that comparison…they really do look that way. 🙂
Beautiful…I could almost smell the roses ;0) Happy Easter Weekend, Johanna
I can’t recall if they were fragrant…I saw (and smelled) a LOT of roses that week! 🙂 I hope you had a wonderful Easter!
A wonderful rose ! I don´t know about the insect, it´s a bit spider like.
Have a Happy Easter weekend!
Definitely a stunning bloom! I think you might be right about the critter being a spider, it’s a bit of a tricky view. I hope you had a lovely weekend.
Happy Easter. Love the flowers 🙂
Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Beautiful!
I thought they were so striking. The gardens there were really marvelous. 🙂
Lovely! I am looking forward to seeing the wild roses bloom again this year! Have a lovely Easter weekend Sheryl!
Ah…it still feels like it will be forever until the wild roses bloom! One of my favourite times as well – they are such exquisite flowers! Hope your Easter was wonderful as well.
Just gorgeous! Hugs
I hope you have a wonderful, sunshine-filled week! 🙂
I couldn’t believe you had flowers already but then I saw the photo was from last summer!
LOL…I’m just trying to cheer myself up…we’ve had snow for the past two days and it’s way too cold to be even thinking about the garden! 🙂
Serene beauty. Happy Easter.
I hope you had a beautiful, peaceful Easter.
Indeed we did, Sheryl.
So lovely to see roses during this chilly Easter weekend! Happy holiday!
My thoughts exactly…we seem to be getting more snow now than we did the past two months! I hope you had a wonderful Easter despite the weather.
Yes, thank-you. We had a very good Easter. 🙂
Beautiful flowers! Love the details in the picture where you can see the little insect (spider) on the edge of one of the flowers:)
I didn’t notice the spider until I put these up on the computer…it fits in beautifully. 🙂
Thanks so much for the follow – I’ve really been enjoying the photos on your blog and I’m glad to have found it!
beautiful
Thanks so much for your follow! Have a wonderful week!
You are so welcome and I love your photography-makesme smile.
This is a beauty, Sheryl. Well done.
Thanks so much!
This is so lovely, Sheryl! Thank you.
I’m glad you liked it, Cynthia. Hope you had a wonderful Easter.
Exactly the kind of rose I like best, single-blooming and white.
I so agree!
What a lovely pristine flower! I love glaucous foliage and I bet this would look fantastic grown with the pink single Rosa glauca; I wonder if it can tolerate a bit of shade, as R. glauca does?
