Assalam o Alaekum Respected Members,
This black rose got my attention and i am planning to buy the seeds. This bag would reach me in approx 20-40 days. Will the seeds be affected in this time frame? and please share your experience about the black rose too. The link is as follows

There is no true black rose at all.

Ahmm but ask that what are they sending you? They maybe sending you seeds of nearly black rose and the pictures are photoshop edited. And as told by Hamad sb. and Umar sb. that there is no pure black rose How would anyone send seeds of rose that does not exist.

Two points to consider:
. If this colour exists, then the plants should also surely be available in Pattoki & through it in the major nurseries in main cities.
. Is it advisable to grow it from seeds & then keep waiting with all the attached risks, if/when the ready plants are available at the Nurseries?

I never heard about the black rose and that is why i got curios in planting it. Unfortunately , this online scam has met almost everyone who have tried to buy something online. Thanks a lot all senior members for enlightening me. JazakAllah
