Since the Victorian era, people have used flowers instead of words to express emotions. In a bouquet, everything matters: variety, quantity and size. But a special meaning is given to the shade of the buds. Flowers of unusual color excite the imagination more than traditional representatives of the flora. After vain attempts to grow roses with blue petals, florists have learned to dye flowers in the desired shade using a dye.
Amazing blue roses are obtained from white specimens by adding a special dye to the water for flowers. Moreover, you can achieve any tone: from pale blue to deep blue. These shades have different meanings. For example, a lilac undertone informs about the emergence of first love, expresses charm and admiration. Dark purple shades suit the face of red-haired beauties. Mysterious and extraordinary blue roses are given to inaccessible and mysterious personalities to emphasize their uniqueness.
Value
According to Rudyard Kipling, the blue rose symbolized death. After all, it was impossible to give it to a living bride, since such a flower does not exist in nature.
Then unusual flowers became a sign of an unattainable ideal, which requires a lot of effort to approach.
For many peoples, these flowers are subconsciously associated with the 'blue blood' that flows in the veins of aristocrats and representatives of the royal family. Therefore, unusual flowers personify splendor, royal luxury and divinity – the qualities of people who decide the fate of entire nations and states.
Japanese experts believe that an exclusive gift is the lot of the elite, it means a person's desire to put the whole world at the feet of his beloved.
In ancient times, this flower could only be seen in a dream. This is what this dream meant:
- Cutting a flower is a harbinger of sadness.
- To see a blue rose among the bushes with red buds is suffering from unrequited love.
- Broken or withered – a bad ending to the novel.
- To receive blue roses as a gift from a gentleman is a waking prediction of incomparable happiness from the love of a person who gave a bouquet in a dream.
