June colours - 5

~ Moonsprite ~

This rose looks lovely en masse in a vase, though I rarely pick my roses for the house.
Its an oldie and has a long flowering season, I wonder why it isn't grown more often,
as it makes an attractive garden addition if the colour is to your liking. I'd call it
a jonquil (narcissus) shade which darkens to a soft apricot as the central colour, would
you agree?


other sizes: small medium large original auto

A strikingly beautiful image, made stronger by the dark background. ~V~
