    Ok kinda weird to ask but i need to get a black rose for a girl. Its a really long story but if anyone knows where please let me know.

    I live in N.Ireland. I know there is no true black rose. But they are really a very very dark red. It has to be real as well. No sprayed or plastic or anything.

    Thanx Guys i very much appreciate this you have no idea!

    You might want to try sticking a white rose in water with black food coloring (i.e. the stem, not the petals). After a few days it should be black. I have never tried it, but in theory it should work.

    real black roses are extremely expensive. so much so that 99% of black roses you find at florists are dyed/sprayed black

    ...Goth please :hehe:

    Anyway, the best idea would probably be what Der Meister said, stick white roses in a vase with black food coloring (if there is such a thing...), and let them go for a few days. Cut them each day, just to get maximum...drinking?

    I know if you drink excess amounts of tequila and vomit on grass it turns it brown maybe try it on a red rose see what happens
