Rosebud

Completely contrived for Tiny Tuesday - but here is a rosebud from my garden, against a banana for contrast. My roses are still growing, although as you can see, the December specimens are looking a little more fraught than those in the summer months. 7 hours daylight and shed loads of constant rain is taking its toll a bit. 

Can't believe its December though. I'm going to have to think about Christmas shopping.
