The Scented Garden
Colours change: in the morning light, red shines out bright and clear and the blues merge into
their surroundings, melting into the greens; but by the evening the reds loose their piquancy,
embracing a quieter tone and shifting toward the blues in the rainbow. Yellow flowers remain
bright, and white ones become luminous, shining like ghostly figures against a
darkening green background.
- Rosemary Verey, The Scented Garden, 1981
