A Desert Beauty
I took an afternoon stroll in the winter sunshine yesterday, and I walked past a rose bush I have always admired. Sadly, it was hacked at by the new owners of the house, yet it seems to be springing back, and is well enough to send forth some blooms this year! This single bush displays roses in shades of pale yellow with pink edges, vibrant pink, carmine and orange. The former owner whom I met one day before she moved away) wass unsure of its origins, as it was part of the garden when she bought the property, however after I first saw it, I did some research to try and find out what it is. I think it is a Desert Peace rose. Bathed in beautiful sunshine the vibrant bloom was too beautiful not to photograph.
The “Desert Peace” rose is a hybrid tea rose with yellow blend blooms, with pink edges. It was produced by Meilland International in France in 1991.
Yes, spring is in the air, as winter in Melbourne makes a reluctant retreat. Tuesday was a beautifully day with big blue skies and glorious sunshine, although it was and remains rather chilly for this time of year with a iciness in the air as you inhale it whilst on a walk like I took.
