A rose is a rose!

As I mentioned in my last post about how I love the fervor with which municipal authorities participate in keeping Delhi green. I managed to visit the Annual Rose Show in Delhi last month, and also managed to get few clicks. One disclaimer though, the actual exhibition was much grander and the following clicks in no manner represent the full varieties of roses displayed….

There were various smaller contests woven under the exhibition/ competition. I found the categories really innovative and I think they were necessary for making rational decisions about the winners. How else will you decide the winner!

There were several contests within stem roses.
… and for mixed color bunches
… and bunches from the same plant.
… and bunches from the same ‘family’
… and for serene whites
… and for darling yellows
… and eternal reds
... and the eye-popping oranges
... and the amazing shaded varieties
…. And dozens of other smaller contests

I confess, I fell in love with roses all over again...
