A blue rose is like a unicorn in the world of flowers. You won't find it in nature, and yet people go crazy for it. It's a symbol of the unreachable, of mystery, and of dreams coming true.
We're often asked: "Is that blue color real?" Let's take a look at how this floristic wonder comes to be, and why it's so popular.

"There are two types of blue roses on the market. The cheap ('carnival') ones are just spray-painted — you can tell because they stain your hands and have no scent. At Květiny Expres we exclusively use the absorption method. A white rose (A1 quality) "drinks up" a special dye through its stem, all the way into the petals. The result? The color lives on the inside, doesn't stain, doesn't flake off, and the rose keeps its natural structure and scent."
Symbolism: What Are You Saying With a Blue Rose?
While red is about passion, blue is about depth and mystery.
Unattainability: "You're one of a kind to me." Since a blue rose doesn't grow in nature, giving one shows you've done the impossible for someone.
Mystery and trust: Blue is the color of loyalty and depth.
New beginnings: It symbolizes hope for a miracle.
Who Is It Ideal For?
It's a controversial color — you either love it or you don't. But with these groups, you'll score a perfect hit:
For men: It's the number one choice among "masculine" flowers. It doesn't come across as sweet or romantic, but technical and luxurious.
For fantasy lovers: It's reminiscent of magic potions, or the "Winter Rose" from Game of Thrones.
For individualists: If a woman never wears pink, a blue rose will amaze her with its originality.
Caring for Blue Roses
Since the rose has been treated, it behaves a little differently:
Water: Don't be alarmed if the water in the vase turns slightly blue over time. That's just the dye naturally releasing from the stem.
Leaves: Strip off any leaves that would sit in the water, so the water doesn't spoil faster.
Longevity: Thanks to the dyeing process, these roses are often even hardier than natural ones. They'll last you a long time!
