Rhymes with Orange

Years ago at the Huntington I gave a talk about roses and color. I came down hard on Orange as it just does not go with all the pinks and reds in a rose garden. There were rumblings in the audience. Five years later I was there to give a talk on rugosa roses. Hardly had I been introduced when five ladies with long capes close to the podium got up, turned and faced the audience,  removed the capes and they were all dressed in flaming orange. Raspberries to me.Needless to say my cheeks turned red.
