Black Spray Tinted Roses

Sold by stem. Color: Black *** Black Spray tinted roses are a solid, even black across the whole head, with no red or purple showing through at the centre. That is what separates them from Blackjack, which is a red base carrying black through the veins: Black Spray reads as black in photographs and under artificial light, not as a very dark red. Colour is taken up by absorption at the farm - freshly cut stems stand in dye and the flower draws it up through its own vascular system into the petal tissue. Black is the hardest tone to reach this way, which is why most black roses on the market are spray-painted. Used for Halloween, gothic and black-tie palettes, and anywhere a dark bloom has to hold its own against strong colour rather than recede into it. Black Spray Rose Technical Specs Bud Size 5.5 - 6.5 cm Stem Length 40 - 80 cm Vase Life 16 - 18 days Petals 35 - 48 Colour Black Black Spray Roses — Frequently Asked QuestionsHow long do Black Spray roses last? 16 to 18 days in the vase. Tinting by absorption does not shorten vase life, because the rose is never cut open or coated. We cut and tint after you order, so that clock starts when the flowers reach you. How many stems come in a bunch? 25 stems per bunch. Roses are sold by the stem and bunched in 25s, so a 100-stem box arrives as four bunches. Does the colour rub off on hands or fabric? No. The dye is drawn up the stem into the petal tissue while the rose is still drinking, so the colour sits inside the petal rather than on it. Sprayed and airbrushed roses coat the surface and can transfer onto hands, linens and dresses; absorption-tinted roses do not. How is Black Spray different from Blackjack? Blackjack is a deep red rose carrying black through the petal veins, so it reads near-black at a distance and shows red up close. Black Spray is black throughout. If you need the darker of the two in a photograph, order Black Spray. How do I order these roses wholesale? By the stem, bunched in 25s. Stems run 40 - 80 cm, cut and tinted to order, with UPS delivery in 3 to 5 business days across the US and shipping calculated at checkout.
