"Knockout Roses"

Photo courtesy of Bob Cook. Cheria's uncle Bob Cook and his wonderful wife Lorraine sure do have green thumbs! Their yard contains several varieties of beautiful flowers including some spectacular "Knockout" roses. Today's picture features just a few of the gorgeous blossoms that recently burst into bloom. I believe that God gave us flowers to brighten up our world and lift our spirits when they sag a bit, and it's hard to imagine finding any that are more beautiful than these absolute "knockouts". Looking at this picture makes me want to plant a few Knockout Roses myself, but unfortunately my thumb is closer to brown than green.   Click here to comment on this picture.   Visit the POTD Archives for previous "Pictures Of The Day"!     Submit a photo of your own!                                 Place the "Picture of the Day" on your website, for free!
