I have never seen 'Astrid Lindgren' in winter before. The flower may differ from "normal" in January.

Is the second time I'm coming to this matter. I add to the previous explanations that this phenomenon happens with any rose ,any season but much more in Winter, mainly at sunrise and sunset( the days with sunshine). This is the reason I don't post to HMF photos taken out of the central hours of the day(except for a few cases) , people don't believe.

Henrique,
We think this IS just the reason to post these atypical photos. Maybe it would help to include a brief comment about why a plant's color is unusual. It's a learning experience for all of us.

Sorry the delay.
Well. the experts in pigmention conjugated with light and not only may explain the apparent variation of tints. In the same day, in general, is not the colour that changes , is the way we see the colour, according to variations of sunlight reflection. Another example is my photo of Empress farah, Id 53602, taken near the sunset.
I think,in other kind of atypical photos , under special conditions of light and backs, the camera can "see" what we don't see. This can happen with RHAPSODY IN BLUE. As I have removed the best example, was shocking some people, will post again to my HMF garden.
All this is only the result of my observations and experimentations, just empirical. Thanks for your help.
Henrique

I am absolutely sure it is ASTRID LINDGREN. This photo was taken in January at the end of the day. I remember well the moment because I was also surprised with the hue given by the sunset.
Obvious there were not many roses so it was easier to catch anything uncommon. The other photo you also say is not Astrid was taken at the same flower, earlier. About flower shape, I have no comments...
I know Astrid Lindgren is very common in Scandinavia but is also common in my garden, have a lot of them. A mistake can occur but not in this case. Don't forget my climate is special and including many micro climates.

Yes, it might be your climate. Though, Astrid Lindgren never gets that "full" in our climate. Here it is a rose which resembles more of 'Bonica' and other double or semi-full roses. I assume that you have bought the roses at a place which knows how to label their plants correctly?
Best regards,
Henrik

If you analyse my other photos you will see other shapes and shades. I bought my Astrid in Germany 15 years ago. It is a very hardy shrub that you can reproduce easily in own roots, is the reason I have so many plants on my garden of 5000 m2. And if potuguese climate can afford special conditions, imagine a mini micro climate where is my garden. I was born in the north of Portugal and lived there till twenty six (highlans where temperatures can reach 10 degrees and more bellow zero). Now I live neighbouring of Lisbon where I have some roses, another climate. And my garden is 50 km far a way in the south of Lisbon a very very micro climate, a cross of many climates such as mediterranean desert and others. As you see I have knowlege of several conditions for roses. Anyway I don't know everything about roses or other plants, absolutely no: what can I say when see different reactions of plants from place to place in a little piece of land, drawghts can affect only a branch of a tree!... in my garden.
Best regards,
Henrique
