The rose arrangements in the 2013 Albuquerque Rose Show exhibited a remarkable range of creativity. Beyond that, the growing season had not been particularly good this spring, and the timing for the show was also not particularly good. That these and the other arrangers could put together these designs is a tribute to their skill and creativity.
On the Rose Arrangement page are images of arrangements at various shows in the Pacific Southwest District in the 2004-2007 time frame.
These arrangements shown here in the 2013 Albuquerque Rose Show are outstanding and the best of any of the shows I have seen in the past. Congratulations to each of the arrangers. Outstanding photography to show off these arrangements.
Photography of roses and rose arrangement seems to be the future of rose shows….in my opinion.
Hi, Lauren! I have to say that I share that opinion. The artistic divisions are where the fun is. JMHO, of course!
Thanks for dropping by and taking the time to comment!
Thank you for showing us your excellent photos of some of the rose arrangements, Susan. They all look so colorful and fresh, with great focus and balance. I think it was a very good arrangement section of the Albuquerque Rose Show, considering the weather conditions this spring.
Hi, Juanita! Thank you for dropping by the blog and leaving a comment. 🙂
I agree that it was a very good arrangement section this year. Albuquerque has been known for its good arrangements in the rose shows over the years, but with the weather and other factors I was not sure how this year would turn out. I was very pleasantly surprised!
Your arrangements, as always, were wonderful!
