Bleu Lavende Tinted Roses

Sold by stem. Color: Blue & purple *** Bleu Lavende tinted roses carry two tones in one bloom: a pale ice-blue heart opening out into deep violet guard petals. The contrast is sharpest while the rose is half open, which is the stage it ships at. Both tones are absorption-tinted at the farm, drawn up the stem into the petal tissue rather than sprayed on, so neither one flakes or transfers as the bloom opens. It does the work of two varieties in a single stem, which is why it turns up in blue-and-purple wedding palettes where mixing a separate blue rose with a separate purple one would read as two flowers rather than one scheme. Bleu Lavende Rose Technical Specs Bud Size 5.5 - 6.5 cm Stem Length 40 - 80 cm Vase Life 16 - 18 days Petals 35 - 48 Colour Pale blue centre with violet outer petals Bleu Lavende Roses — Frequently Asked QuestionsHow long do Bleu Lavende 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. Is the blue and the purple on the same flower? Yes. Each bloom carries both - the pale blue is at the centre and the violet is on the outer guard petals. You are not being sent a mix of two different roses. 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.
