Last Bud of Summer

This poor little rosebud has been like this since I came back from San Diego over three months ago. It is below 30 degrees at night--and though it is up in the 60's-70's in the daytime, it will never be warm enough till spring for this little bud to bloom and yet it looks so promising--there must be a message here. "Unfulfilled wishes?" "Frozen in time?" "Stilted growth?" "Never grew up?" You name it. When will it finally give up????
