But the real question is:
Who is buying THESE?
At up to $9.50 a stem, nonetheless!
I just can't understand why someone would want to buy these completely fake (dyed), poor souls. The dye was even dripped all over the leaves. So sad. I felt sorry for these roses, like the way you feel when you see animals up for adoption. They were probably white before someone decided to make them look like artificial roses from the dollar store!
What makes this even more unbelievable is that Seattle is gorgeous this time of year. Neighborhoods, parks, even street medians were dripping with lovely, natural, floral beauty. Here is just one example from the University of WA:

Hi Jackie! Thanks for showing these beautiful tulips and gorgeous pink tree. I love that market! Never seen blue roses before. I guess someone might want to give an unusual gift to a friend who likes jokes...
Ewww! I don't know about those dyed roses. Yuck.~~Dee
Love the tree! The dyed roses are unusual - I like mine natural... but I guess they'll appeal to someone. -Jackie
Hey, you came to my town! I totally agree, those roses are major icko. No idea who buys them, especially when as you say the natural beauty surrounding us is so plentiful especially at this time of year! Dyed flowers should be banned!!! Glad you saw the cherries in their glory, it's about my favorite time of year here.
