What do blue roses stand for?

each rose has it own meaning, what does the blue rose represent?

What do blue roses stand for?
"Blue: Fantasy and impossibility. Hoping for a miracle and new possibilities. Many people have a quest or a fascination for blue roses. I have a book by Ibn al Awam, which was written in the twelfth century, translated into French by J. J. Clement entitled Le livre de l'agriculture. the book speaks of azure blue roses that were known to the orient. These blue roses were attained by placing a blue die into the bark of the roots. This process is explained in the book and has been proven to work by Joret, a very knowledgeable french scientist."



This is really an interesting page and has info on a lot of different colors. It's kind of fun reading for me.

Reply:Whatever you want it to represent. Some guy makes up what everything stands for and you believe it. Why? What does blue mean to you?
Reply:To my knowledge this is no such thing as a true blue rose...



"It was also something that was apparently impossible to do by using conventional breeding techniques. Another incentive was the fact that there are very few true blue cut flowers and breeders were very interested in developing a long-term cut flower that was blue."



Interesting question. To answer your question directly, a blue rose may represent "something which is unattainable."
