Red Roses in Rome

If you have ever wondered how the sellers manage to keep their red roses in pristine condition in the heat of Rome, here's the answer.

Along comes the seller with a bunch of roses a little the worse for wear, dips them in the water, holds them under, shakes a few times, then, proudly continues his work with born again roses.
