They’ve been dubbed ‘Applause’, the natural blue roses Suntory invented in collaboration with Australian partner Florigene. The blue flower will finally go on sale in the United States and Canada for the first time this autumn. They’ve been available for a limited time in Japan for some time, although at $25 apiece they’re only affordable for special occasions.
Looking at the flowers, it’s not quite the shade of blue we’d expect. It’s actually more purple than blue. However, Suntory says it will continue to do more testing to come up with the ‘right’ shade of blue in the coming years. For now, we have to be content with these blue roses.
