Sorry if this is in the wrong place but...

I'm looking for tricks that involve Roses (or flowers in general) such as Paper to Real and Torch to Rose.

Does anyone have any information on these (or similar) effects, and where I can get them?

Also, if anyone uses/used these effects, what are your experiences with them?

Maybe you should check out the video titled, Rose Magic by Monte. He does have a website, I forgot what it was though. Do a search, I'm sure you'll find it. Matt Redd

The Kevin James Floating Rose is a beautiful stage routine. I believe Kevin James taught this routine to David Copperfield for one of his specials. You can find it at the following link. Good luck and if you get this one let us know what you think and how it goes.

Doc Eason, on one of his bar magic videos, makes a nice looking rose out of a red napkin. Not much for magic, but it's a good start.

A side note here... Michael Mode has produced napkins that are colored... so the bud part is red and the stem part is green... he is from Michigan. They are reasonably priced.. like 50 for $10... I don’t have the ordering info at hand but be on the lookout.

Thanks Doc. Here's the site... http://www.napkinrose.com

I have a wand that has a rose that pops out of the end of it. I did it for a girl at my school, but she didn't like it and called me names.

Yeah, the wand with the rose popping out doen't seem to magical. Simon Lovell on his 3dvd set explains how to make a nice paper rose from a napkin.

Doc and Michael,

Thanks for the heads up here. I saw them on the website and ordered a set immediately.

The greatest thing I ever saw with a napkin rose was after I had given one to a woman, she took a tiny spray vial of perfume from her purse and proceeded to give the rose the final perfect touch. Very classy!
