"Madame Meilland" est un trésor végétal sauvé de la seconde guerre mondiale. Voici son histoire:
Afin de protéger sa création de l'invasion de la France par l'Allemagne en juin 40, Francis Meilland fit parvenir ses boutures à des amis basés en Turquie, en Italie et en Allemagne.
La plante fut aussi envoyée aux Etats-Unis sous forme de quelques greffons, via le consul américain qui utilisa le dernier avion à quitter la région lyonnaise en 1942. La variété fut ainsi préservée par Robert Pyle, un rosiériste de Pensylvanie, ami américain de la famille Meilland depuis 1933.
A l'automne 1942, F. Meilland publia cette nouvelle rose dans le catalogue de l'entreprise, lui attribuant le nom de sa mère décédée 10 ans plus tôt: Madame A. Meilland.
Après la signature de l'armistice le 8 mai 1945, F. Meilland reçut une nouvelle inattendue de la part de Robert Pyle: Il avait officiellement lancé la commercialisation du rosier N°3-35-40 sous le nom de "PEACE". Le baptême avait été organisé par l'American Rose Society à Pasadena en Californie en présence de vedettes de cette époque.
C'était le jour de la chute de Berlin, date considérée officiellement comme marquant la fin de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale en Europe !
La nouvelle "Rose Peace" fut offerte aux 49 personnes des différents pays, qui, le 26 juin 1945 se réunirent à San Francisco pour constituer l'ONU.
Une "ROSE de la PAIX" était posée sur le bureau de chacun des délégués, accompagnée de cette note; "NOUS ESPERONS QUE LA "ROSE PEACE" PORTERA LES PENSEES HUMAINES VERS UNE PAIX DURABLE DANS LE MONDE"...
Quand la petite histoire rejoint la grande Histoire...
J'aurai toujours un rosier Madame Meilland dit "Rose Peace" dans mon jardin...
Here is the History of the rose "Madame Meilland" or "PEACE ROSE":
The history of "Peace Rose" and how it came about is a fascinating story wich is well worth telling.
In 1935, the French rose breeder Françis Meilland chose fifty seedlings from his seed beds. One of which was labelled 3-35-40. Over the next few years, F. Meilland watched its development with interest and planned to launch the new rose as "Madame Antoine Meilland" in honour of his mother.
However, a few months later, Hitler invaded France and the future of the rose nursery looked dire. To ensure that the new rose was not lost forever, F. Meilland managed to get 3 parcels of budwood out of the country, one of which was smuggled out in a diplomatic bag on the last plane out of France. The budwood was sent to another rose breeder, Robert Pyle, in Pensylvania, USA.
Over the next few years, F. Meilland launched his new rose in France as "Madame Antoine Meilland". He was not aware that some of the budwood had reached Germany, and Italy and the rose was being sold under different names. In Germany, it was called "Gloria Dei", and in Italy "Gioia".
F. Meilland had not had any word from America and had no idea the fate of his rose over there.
It was not untill liberation of France in 1945, that F. Meilland finally heard from Robert Pyle that the rose had survived the war and was being grown successfully.
In the meantime, F. Meilland had decided to change the name of the rose. He wrote to Field Marshall Alan Brooke to thank him for his part in the liberation of France, and to ask him if he would give his name to the rose. The Field Marshall declined stating that a far more fitting name would be "PEACE".
The new name "Peace" was publicly announced in America by Robert Pyle on the 29th April 1945, the very day that Berlin fell and was officialy considered the end of Second World War in Europe.
Towards the end of 1945, "Peace Roses" were given to each of the delegations at the inaugural meeting of the UNITED NATIONS in San Francisco each with a note which read
"We HOPE THE "PEACE ROSE" WILL INFLUENCE MEN'S THOUGHTS FOR EVERLASTING WORLD PEACE"...
I will always have a rosebush "Peace Rose" in my garden...
Ci sono tante cose da augurare, ma ho scelto questo titolo poiché "Ciò che non si può dire e ciò che non si può tacere, la musica lo esprime."

E oggi troverete tanta musica nei miei post, buon ascolto ;-)

Quelques chiffres intéressants :
hauteur de la tour : 35 mètres
la plate forme supérieur se situe à plus de 30 mètres, c'est à dire nettement au-dessus de la cime des arbres environnants
diamètre de la base : 12 mètres
diamètre de la plate forme supérieure : 8 mètres

Les fans de Game of Thrones connaissent les loups terribles, fidèles compagnons des enfants Stark. Mais aujourd'hui, ils sont bien plus que de simples personnages d'une série télévisée à succès. L'espèce, éteinte depuis plus de 12 500 ans, a été ramenée à la vie par Colossal Bioscience . L'entreprise de lutte contre l'extinction a annoncé avoir donné naissance à trois loups terribles, un exploit historique !!!

Fans of Game of Thrones will be familiar with dire wolves, which were the faithful companions of the Stark children. But now, they're much more than characters in a hit television show. The species, which has been extinct for over 12,500 years, has been brought back to life by Colossal Bioscience. The de-extinction company announced that it had successfully birthed three dire wolves, a landmark achievement !!!

[Titolo: Luci e ombre]
Era una giornata nuvolosa e senza luce, il tempo non era dei migliori ma sono uscito lo stesso...magari avrei trovato qualcosa di interessante da fotografare. Il mio pensiero si è esaudito poco dopo, quando sono arrivato vicino a quest'albero. Devo dire che appena arrivato, il cielo aveva uno spesso strato di nuvole, e la luce che vedete qui è uscita quasi per magia solo per pochi attimi! È stata quindi un'occasione da non perdere e ho scattato subito!
La luce calda delle ultime ore del pomeriggio ha illuminato le foglioline ancora giovani di questo piccolo noce (perché di un noce si tratta) e il prato sottostante...
Tornato a casa ero pienamente soddisfatto!
Per dire l'ultima cosa, l'albero è lo stesso della mia precedente foto intitolata "Lonely tree"!
It was a cloudy day and without light, the weather was not the best but I came out the same ... maybe I would find something interesting to photograph. My thoughts came to be heard shortly after I came near this tree. I have to say that as soon as the sky had a thick layer of clouds, and the light you see here has come out almost for magic just for a few moments! It was therefore an opportunity not to be missed and I took it straight away!
The warmest light of the last hours of the afternoon illuminated the still young leaves of this little walnut (because of a walnut it is) and the lawn below ...
Returning home I was fully satisfied!
To say the last thing, the tree is the same as my previous photo titled "Lonely Tree"!

Whether it be flesh or metal, all that satiates the great hunger burns alike.
Just a quickie made in a couple hours. I only used parts I had gotten from Bricks Cascade back in May. Nothing else!
