How do you dye a rose?

If the rose is white or a light color you can place it in water that has a heavy color to it. Food coloring will work ok. Overnight as the rose draws the water the color will stain the petals. It won't make a white rose red but it does produce an interesting result. Just make sure to cut about an inch off the bottom of the stem with a knife under water before you place it in the dye. You can also try dipping it into the dye but unless its a dye like hair dye that is designed to penetrate organic systems not much of the dye will be absorbed. Another option albeit a tacky one you can try spray paint.


Do any food colors or inks contain only one type of dye molecule?

Yes, they can. There are various types of colors and they are very often a mixture, but it is not required. Red for example may often be made only from Cocheneal. But if they want a different shade of red it may be a mixture of Elderberry, currants, cherries, beetroot and carrots can also be mixed to create natural red coloring

Can red food coloring in food make your stool red?

Red velvet cake, beets, foods which use red dye #40, kool aide, Gatorade and even tomatoes and peppers on occasion can make stool red. Also don't listen to people who say you have to "eat a lot of" a red food coloring to make your stool red - not true! A red velvet cup cake or a single beverage can do it! The things to look out for are do you see the red stool within 16 hours of consumption of the red food coloring and does it resolve within a few bowel movements. If not, see your Doctor.
