This Sola Rose, SO53, is dyed a bright violet-lavender and has a noticeably looser, more open build than the denser purple rose in the range. Its outer petals are wide and wavy, lifting and folding at the edges, while the inner petals spiral gently around a small open centre.
The dye gives an attractive watercolour effect. Where the pith is thinner the colour looks light and slightly translucent; along the folds and edges it deepens into stronger violet. The image shows a group of roses, and the difference in their petal spread illustrates the relaxed, garden-picked character of this style.
The softer silhouette and lighter purple suit spring and summer décor, lavender-themed gifting, baby showers and pastel wedding palettes. In mixed arrangements SO53 blends easily with white and pink sola flowers, and it works well in scented diffuser sets.
Floral Mongers supplies this dyed rose among its handmade sola flowers for wholesale and export, with other colours and size grading available on request.

Natural variation
Each rose takes up the dye differently depending on pith density, so shade and streaking vary from light lavender to deeper violet; the open, handmade petal shape also differs between pieces. These are natural characteristics of handmade and botanical products, not defects; shade, size and grade are confirmed on sample approval.
Care & storage
- Store in a cool, dry place; sola pith takes up moisture from humid air
- Keep away from strong direct sunlight to help the dyed colour hold its depth
- Handle with dry hands; damp fingers can mark the dyed petals
- Dust gently with a soft brush or a hair-dryer on a cool setting
- Diffuser or fragrance oil can be applied; test one piece first, as oil may darken the pith
- Unpack promptly on arrival and let the pieces air in a dry room; avoid storing in sealed, humid packaging
