After celebrating our success in getting through another gardening year (and what a horrendous year it has been!), it's time to start cleaning up our gardens for winter. In keeping with the goal of a neat and clean winter landscape, this month's thumbnail photo is Pristine, a 1978 Warriner hybrid tea. The blooms start out a pristine white, with a subtle pink edge on some petals, and gradually acquire more pink as they age.
