I found an unusually dark bloom on the Comtesse today, flushed heavily towards the petal edge in bright pink. Although it isn't unusual to see slightly darker edges at times on this rose, this was quite distinct and the rest of the flowers on the bush were the usual pale pink colour. Holding a picked regular bloom for comparison. My garden, Sydney, 11 March, 2020.
