black rose?is it real??

OMG, got to get one of those :D

Seriously though, how's this guy getting away with it, surely someone will report him to Ebay before long pointing out that roses in such colours don't exist??

I feel sorry for the people who buy these seeds genuinely believing they're getting something stunning, if the seed they get grows and when it eventually reaches flowering age imagine the disapointment when they get a plain yellow roses or something similar!!!

 

never say never ....

with dna manipulation etc anything is possible nowadays .... saw this article about black petunias a while back ... (it is actually very deep purple, and looks 'nearly' pitch black)

I also bought a blue shrub rose bush from david austin a few years back for a client ... called Rhapsody in blue .... the flowers on this one stay purple ... but it has a nice fragrance though

Rhapsody In Blue - David Austin Roses

suppose in a few years time, we will be getting all sorts of new hardy exotic multi-coloured hardy evergreen shrubs, trees and flowers .... some new crossbreed veg will be nice too ... I can't wait!

I think the rainbow seed is pushing credability a bit !!! Now do they sell a union jack rose seed or a stars and stripe rose seed ???:D

 

when I was a kid, comic books used to have adverts

I always wanted to buy the seeds that grew sea monkeys ... I genuinely believed that the adverts were genuine ... when I eventually bought a tropical fishtank, I was a bit older and had stopped reading comics .... (but I still sometimes wonder?)
