Dutch company Happy Colors created these "tie-dyed" roses above and other multi-colored flowers by injecting pigments into the stem using hypodermic needles.

    Ajan... If a man gave me these and proposed, the answer would have to be yes. This hippie LOVES them!

    So pretty! I'd buy some just to see them in real life.

    Would this work if I inject food colorant? :P It would be a nice experiment!

    as a floristry student who has seen these in person I hate these. They just look tacky in real life but I suppose the novelty is why people keep buying them

    tacky is part of their appeal though. I really loved the daisies and the roses that were tinted in cool colors best.

    I just got these from my hubby and I was speechless. They are GORGEOUS and appeal to my artist eye. Yes, they look unnatural, but I love them so much more than plain roses. These will always stay forever in my mind...they are so unique!!

    where can these be purchased? I find them facinating and a very unusual fine. Amazing! simply amazing?
    my son is a hortuculurist, can he buy them from nursuries or only by mail order?
