Description Some info:

The rainbow rose is a rose which has had its petals artificially coloured.

The colouring method exploits the rose's natural processes by which water is drawn up the stem. By splitting the stem and dipping each part in a differently coloured water, the colours are drawn into the petals resulting in a multicoloured rose.
The rainbow rose has been developed by a collaboration of two dutch companies, River Flowers and F.J. Zandbergen & Zn. Together they formed Happy Roses to produce and market rainbow roses.

River Flowers started as a cultivator of chrysanthemums. In 2004, they developed a method of adding colour to the petals of chrysanthemums and applied for a worldwide patent.

Zandbergen is a large company which specialises in everything to do with roses. When they happened to come into contact with River Flowers in 2006, the colouring process was tried on roses and found to be successful.

This is beautiful I've done this before, in third grade, but they were always turned to one different color. I never knew something like this could be done I think I might try it next time I'm home ^^

but if you use colored water to make the roses multicolored, then what makes them naturally red in the first place?

I really like all your rose photos, but this is one of the better ones. In my opinion, the reflection is a wonderful touch.

oh my. This really is quite beautiful! What vibrant and pretty colors! I want one!

I actually made a red, white and blue carnation for my sick aunt a few years ago on the Fourth of July. She loved it so much that she has it pressed in a book.

Personally, I think the rainbow rose is kinda of a cliche, you see it everywhere (or at least I do ). However you pull it off once again with not just a snap shot of the beautiful rose, but with the reflection adding a very nice touch, and whatever is on the table/reflection thing, I think sort of looks like sparkles, and it makes it look lovely. Again adding the unrealistic beautiful world feel to it.
