January 8

I have two flower boxes outside my front door. In the centre of each is a flower carpet rose, one is red and the other white (surprise surprise). I try to have red annuals with the white rose and white annuals with the red rose. This year my mixed-coloured pansies are doing so well I haven't planted my usual red and white annuals.

This photo is of the red rose although it looks a little pink in the photo due to the light. I love this photo. The flowers look quite big but they are small. I have this as my screen save on my work computer and a lot of people have commented on it.
