I love different flowers but roses are always among the favourite. Many years ago when I visited the Botanic Gardens in Moscow for the first time I was taking photos of roses. Sadly, it was early September, so the roses were on the brink of dying.
Last week I had a walk in town, which walk took me to St James’s Garden in Manchester. A while ago I noted that it’s possible to live in Manchester without visiting London, for there are many “namesakes” of London landmarks. There are Pall Mall, Albert Square, and Oxford Street (although not as long). Just fifteen minutes away by train from Manchester there is a Hyde Park. And there is St James’s Garden. It is very small, located between Deansgate, Quay St, and Liverpool St, and close to Museum of Science and Industry, and Granada TV.
These roses also had a faint sweet scent, unlike some others. So, here are the roses for you…
