Go ask Alice.
If the red queen can have her white roses changed to red ones by having them
painted that color, you would think the same would be possible to make them
blue. The only problem is that there is no blue queen on a chessboard to
order such a thing!
In any case, it seems that producing a true blue rose is almost genetically
impossible.
Off with their heads!!!

from "Alice in Wonderland".
Who's been painting my roses red?
Who's been painting my roses red?
Who dares to paint the vulgar paint
The royal flower bed
For painting my roses red
Someone will lose his head
They're going to lose their heads
For painting the roses red
It serves them right
They planted white
But roses should be red
Oh, they're going to lose their heads...

Cut roses can easily be made blue~~ they look terrible! I have only
seen them in Scandinavian flower shops.
Produced by standing them in a blue aniline solution for several hours.
Not worth a penny a dozen!!

Accidental Discovery May Bring Blue Roses
Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Blue roses could generate a lot of green. Two
researchers at Vanderbilt University took a gene from a human liver and
placed it into bacteria to better understand how the body metabolizes drugs
as part of their research on cancer and Alzheimer's disease.
"The bacteria turned blue," said Peter Guengerich, a professor of
biochemistry and director of the Center in Molecular Toxicology at
Vanderbilt. "We knew people have been interested in making a blue rose for
years so we thought if we could move these human genes into flowers, we
might come up with one."
