Grey Pearl, days three and four....
It's been fun watching this vase of blooms mature over the past few days. I make sure the vase is full of water each evening so they don't go dry (they DO drink a LOT of water, particularly over night). We'll start with Day Three, then move into Day Four and the afternoon of Day Four...
And, the Fourth Day...
Evening of the Fourth Day...
Will Tillotson described Lavender Pinocchio in a Roses of Yesterday and Today catalog decades ago as having sophisticated coloring of an old Persian carpet. This is where Lavender Pinocchio inherited that sophistication.

WOW ! Great photos of an interesting progression. I would think that the change was even more rewarding in person.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you've enjoyed it, too. It really has been rewarding. In all the years I have grown the rose, this is the first large vase of it I have ever really studied. It is a remarkable color.
