Usually when we see brown flowers, our first instinct is to trash the deceased flora immediately and treat ourselves to a new bouquet! But recently, roses this color have actually become quite trendy—we're seeing them pop up all over Instagram. 'Toffee' roses, as they've been dubbed, are making their way into formal table settings and even wedding bouquets. While they may not have the vibrance of red, pink, or yellow roses, their warm tan tones really add a toasty, elegant touch to any setting. They're the perfect color for fall, or for adding a rustic feel to your spring decor.

Now, finding brown roses is the tricky part, as these aren't just ready-to-buy plants that you can pick up at your local Home Depot (like this cherry blossom tree). The flower originates in South America, according to Flowers by Janie, making these roses extremely hard to find in most U.S. flower shops. It’s not impossible, though—emphasizing how highly-coveted these blooms are, Choice Farms in Seattle Washington wrote on Instagram, "Yes we do carry the most requested rose on planet earth...TOFFEE!" Your best bet? For $66, you can buy 25 of them from Potomac Floral, a seller in Maryland. Also, many wholesale flower sellers offer the unique colored rose as well.

Another option: Artificial toffee roses are popping up for sale on the internet, as well. As you can see from the recently flurry of posts about them on Instagram, most users are only picking a few toffee colored roses to slip into their arrangement. While these butterscotch-colored flowers make a beautiful bouquet as oneself, they also complement many other rose colors, especially white. You can't go wrong when opting for toffee roses.
