"Penrose" / 'Indian Summer' Spring, Perth, Western Australia. The petal reverses (and thus the buds) are dark, in shades of red and orange, and the face of the petals is paler - yellowish buff. This produces a bi-colour effect in the opening bloom which accentuates the often-folded and nested central petals. As the bloom opens, both face and reverse of the petals quickly fade and the fully open bloom is often cream with the barest hint of red veining.
