Black Beauty

The picture does not do this rose justice.  As its name suggests the rose has a black velvet look not captured by my simple camera.  I bought the rose at the La Trobe Sunday market.  I do love deep red roses and this one will planted in the bed in the middle of the lawn where there are already three other roses.  I may remove one which has not flowered at all.  I hope this Black Beauty will give me enough flowers to grace the garden next spring.  I will dig in a lot of compost into the bed before the transplant in winter.
