Pretty In Pink Edges

Our Iceberg blooms have developed pink edges as they have aged. The blooms on this bush are normally solid white. The pink edges might be from a few cool nights that dipped down round 40º F last week.

  1. Lovely. My white ‘Aspirin’ also blushes without sunny days and shows pink spreckles after rain and cold temperatures. To me, this is more intersting than a constantly pure white.

  2. Beautiful photo, Timothy! The pink looks nice with the white. It’s rather chilly there, our low last night was in the low 70’s.

  3. It’s always interesting to see the colours a rose gathers as it ages. Mum has a rose that opens yellow and ends up red. I think it is ‘Masquerade’. It’s not very floriferous but it is being swamped by several climbing plants.

    • Thanks, Susan. Out here there’s always the mystery of what color of flowers and roses we will get with our alkaline soil and intense sunshine.
