Crepuscule, with the Barn in the Background

Cre·pus·cule;  noun  (kre-pus-kyool)  Twilight. [Middle English, from Old French, from Latin crepusculum, from creper, dark.]

What an awkward-sounding name for such a lovely rose!



Even the billowing clouds of daisy-like weeds in the Rose Field add charm to the scene!  (Let's think of them as filler for the arrangement.)

Click HERE to see a Friday Flowers post I did on Crepuscule a couple of years ago, with lots of glamour shot photos.  Trust me, it's worth it.

(Now I'm off to go visit some of the other folks who are sharing a view of their world on Rural Thursday.)
