Rose Dead Head

On 28 December 2009, I snapped off one as described in the title. The package container stated "Blaze Rose," but I don't think Blaze is the species I purchased. I have deep pink blossoms usually by the first week in April. In 2009, I had two small roses growing through November. However, the air has been brisk and breezy, almost freezy, through December.

In December 2008, on Christmas Day, the daffodils had green shoots pushing through the summer season's tomatoes and green peppers. This December, I don't see a single green shoot.
