Fiery Red Tresses

In June this year, I put up a photo of blazing golden yellow and orange beauty which I saw on poking its head out from behind a for sale sign in the front garden of an Art Deco villa. I feared that the house was likely to be demolished and replaced with more land intense town houses, in which case the rose would probably be torn out.

 

I am pleased to report that not only did the house survive, but so too did the rose, which I suspect to be a Royal Circus Rose. It flowers freely and happily still.

 

Yes, spring is now well and truly in the air, as winter in Melbourne fades into memory... almost... and there have been afternoons of glorious sunshine, warm temperatures and blue skies over the last few weeks.
