    Default rainbow roses

    so pretty! i guess these are starting to hit the US (at about $9 per stem!)



    Present your wife or girlfriend with a bunch of these flowers on Valentine's Day and she may well sue you for giving her an eye injury.
    The highly colourful flowers have been developed by a Dutch businessman who dyes each bloom in the colours of the rainbow.
    The dyes are produced from natural plant extracts and are absorbed by the flowers as they grow.

    Aspecial process then controls how much colour reaches each petal – with spectacular results.
    The 'Happy Flowers' were designed by Peter Van de Werken, who owns a flower company close to Den Bosch in southern Holland.
    The firm sells only multi-coloured roses and chrysanthemums but is also looking to do pot plants.
    Mr Van de Werken, 36, said: 'We used to only sell single colour flowers but the market for them took a dip.
    'Myself and my colleagues started looking for something a bit different and came up with the idea of having different-coloured flowers.
    'First of all we tried spraying the flowers but that did not work. Then we tried the dye. It took us about six months to get it right and we still make mistakes.'
    The flowers, which make a change from the traditional Valentine's gift of red roses, can be ordered by visiting www.valueflora.com.
    A set of 12 roses costs about £50.

    I saw these when I went to a flower store recently for a friend - I looked at them but I didn't have the balls to walk out in public with them.

    Hence - the same old boring roses is what she got...*sigh*

    Psychedelic roses! Rock on! And yes, the multicolored psychedelic marijuana will likely be a successful business venture in Holland. Good for him.

    They're gorgeous, they don't even look real. It'll probably be 100 years before they make they're way over to the UK

    Purty! I'll have to let the Hubby know I'd want them. If he saw them in a store, he wouldn't get them for me because he'd think I would hate them. They're interesting.

    Those are beautiful! I really dislike getting flowers (gimmie candy!), but if someone gave me rainbow roses I would be super excited.
