Winter Colour


Although in recent weeks,
 the main colour to emerge this winter has been the white stuff,
 Snow!
There is definite evidence of the lovely warm colour of red.
So many shrubs & plants with red berries,
 a sign of an extreme winter?
Clusters of Rosehips

All of this mixed in with
 the last of Autumn colour foilage



And, such a surprise on a very bitterly cold day,
 following a recent snowfall,
Small, but Bright Pink roses in full bloom!
Only just surviving I'm sure,
 due to the shelter of the thick stone grey garden wall.
But a welcome sight nevertheless.
