Nice colour. I just love how they keep gining the name 'blue' to roses-do they really thing we're deceived and belive them to be blue?

This is a lovely unusual colour. I wouldn't like to see a 'true blue' rose - why can't they be happy with the colours flowers already have? Now they've achieved pink daffodils will they try for blue ones of those too? Yuk!!!!!

'Rhapsody in plum' sounds good...
I love true blue flowers but I can't picture a rose, I think it would look to artificial. Not a fan of pink Daffodils myself ;-)

Nor me, Columbine - why can't they leave things natural?

What else would we spend our money on? Not that I'll but pink Daffodils of course.... I did learn to be very suspicious about blue flowers though!

I agree....blue just doesnt suit some flowers...Pink daffs, no...I dont like any pale pink flowers either, always seem sickly looking to me...:>)

I'm glad I saw that 'blue' verbascum at Chelsea before I decided to buy one - I've never seen a blue with so much pink in it, sort of muddy looking! Again I'll stick to the natural colour spectrum of verbascums.

I agree Wagger...:>)

I thought that blue Vebascum looked dirty, didn't like it at all.
