A nice clean white. They would be nice to see (and smell) in person.

Great one. While I love the close-ups of this I also love the wider angle shots with all the spikes showing.

These are so very common - we see them every time we are out in July and August, but I never weary of them or of their scent. Thanks for the comments, Rosie.
