Pale Pink Roses

Austin, Texas

These were growing in somebody's back yard. The fairly large bush was climbing over and through the privacy fence. The light is bad from this angle, but I couldn't get any other point of view at that time of day. Maybe if I'd dragged my butt out of bed earlier, I could have gotten better light. ;-)

This neighborhood has been here since the mid-1980s. Some of the back yards along the greenway have large old flowering bushes like this - don't know if they went in with the housing development or were here with the farm/ranch that was on this land before.

UPDATE: Despite the old-fashioned form of these flowers, it occurs to me that it might be a more modern variety, such as one of British breeder David Austin's popular "English roses", which are bred to resemble some of the older classes.
