    I would love to view pictures of Blue Roses.

    I found some in a garden catalog and would like to purchase one but wanted to see what they looked like from a home garden.

    I did have one once Glad..about 14 years ago.....I'm trying to remember its name...like Little Girl Blue or something like that. :??:


    Poor thing died when the neighbors dog used it as a bathroom :grr: I sure am glad we don't live there any more.

    Oh dear, Justy, your poor rose. :therethere:

    Have never seen a blue rose before, so I do hope you can find one, Glad.

    I have never seen one either except in pictures in catalogs. They look beautiful. I hope they have a great smell too. Some roses just don't have a fragrant smell.

    Neither of my miniature roses have a fragrance, Glad, but they do look pretty, though. Have seem Blue Girl mentioned as a blue hybrid rose but do not know if they have a perfume.

    I really can't remember if they have a great smell or not. That is usually one of my first questions :smile:

    Will be looking forward to joining you in your Blue Rose quest :lol2:

    Might just send for one.

    I need to order a few more blueberry bushes so will buy the rose then.

    That does sound like an excellent idea, Glad. It will look wonderful in your front garden.

    I have also seen the pictures and wallpapers of blue roses. They would definitely be a good addition to your garden.
