A blue rose
is a flower of the genus Rosa that
presents blue-to-violet pigmentation instead of the more common red, white, or
yellow. After thirteen years of collaborative research by an Australian
company, Florigene, and a Japanese company, Suntory, a rose containing the blue
pigment delphinidin was created in 2004 by genetic engineering of a white rose. The
company and press have described it as a blue rose. Source
