For example, most of the rose varieties currently on the market in Taiwan have a bizarre origin. At an international flower show, the student of a certain well-known senior horticulturalist, without regard for the stink, trawled through garbage piles and "rescued" stems of roses that had been deliberately destroyed by foreign exhibitors at the show, and brought them back for propagation.
台灣目前市面上流通的玫瑰花品種，多是某園藝大老的學生在一次國際花展後，不顧惡臭，半夜在垃圾堆中翻找，將國外參展者故意毀損、不留全屍的參展玫瑰枝幹「救」回去繁衍的後代。
