Lovely rose, weird name though, doesn’t look at all blue!

Josie, I often wondered about the name and found this:
The name "Perennial Blue" is misleading because the rose's flowers are not true blue, but rather a purple-mauve color. While "blue rose" is often used in a metaphorical sense to represent something impossible or unattainable, the Perennial Blue rose's color is closer to purple.
