A hundred ruffled petals

Or indeed more, and changing from palest, pearly pink-white to a deep rose hue at the center.  This ornate bloom balanced on a huge vine growing at the entrance to my cousin's garden; the variety is named "James Galway" after the great classical flautist.  And the fragrance is sweet, rich; the flowers fill all the air with their welcome.
