Happy roses..or should they be called "hippie roses"?
because they look tie-dyed:

The highly colourful flowers have been developed by a Dutch businessman who dyes each bloom in the colours of the rainbow.

The dyes are produced from natural plant extracts and are absorbed by the flowers as they grow. A special process then controls how much colour reaches each petal – with spectacular results.

The 'Happy Flowers' were designed by Peter Van de Werken, who owns a flower company close to Den Bosch in southern Holland.

One is kind of interesting, but a whole bouquet is a bit much imho:
