Rainbow Rose Seeds, Black Rose Seeds - Scam

Seeds of these Roses do not exist. This type of colors are achieved either by slicing the stem and soaking them in colored liquid, or they are simply photo-shopped (digitally enhanced).

How coloring via liquid works: Rainbow Rose - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 
Waiting time for results: 5-7 years

Money lost: Between $1 and $7 per purchase. 



This may not be a lot to some - It's the principal.
We do not know what type of seeds they are actually sending, could be wild roses, could be grass seeds or weed seeds - who knows.
