A Crepuscule Rose - Preston
Melbourne has experienced a wonderful Indian summer this year, and as a result, not only are the Autumnal colours starting to appear, but there are still plenty of beautiful blooms.
This "Crepuscule" rose caught my eye as it's petals caught the bright early afternoon sunshine. This is a very old rose, and it suited the old house and pretty formal garden in which it was growing.
"Crepuscule" is a Noisette Rose which was introduced in 1904. Noisette Roses are tall, bushy plants with clusters of small blooms. They can be grown as climbers with support for their tender canes. They flower with abundance and give off a delicate spicy fragrance. Colors range from white, crimson, and purple.
