Rose is a classic type of flower with thousands of years’ artificial cultivation history. Due to different natural environment and climate around the world, there are more than two thousand kinds of roses. However, because of the genetic problems of rose itself, there are no ways to breed natural rainbow roses and blue roses even though there are many rose varieties.
As the saying goes, the pursuit of pretty is an endless one, that’s why people never stop looking for the special kind of flower like the dazzling rainbow roses and the mysterious blue roses. In 2006, Japan Suntory Holdings Limited took its first attempt and spent¥3 billion to develop the blue rose using the transgenic technology. The result is different from the normal blue rose we know though, it’s not exactly blue color, it’s more like grey white color, yet it’s as high as¥2000 to¥3000 per piece.
Apart from the Japanese transgenic blue roses, Hong Kong’s flower market also sells rainbow roses and blue roses which are dyed with natural grown cut roses. After many years of technological development, the color difference is smaller and the flowers look more natural. Hong Kong Give Gift Boutique (GGB) provides customers with top ranked floral gift- rainbow rose bouquet. We picked the high quality peach rose and applied professional floral dye to complete the whole coloring process. Because we chose the high quality flower materials, the rainbow roses and blue roses in GGB are especially beautiful with outstanding appearance.
In fact, dyeing multi-colored bouquets is not very complicated; we recommend the interested ones to try and DIY it. Here are the step to step guides: First, prepare a bouquet of white roses or peach roses, and then remove the flower thorns. Second, put the blue color floral dye into the water and put the rose stems into the colored water for soaking up. The whole process takes around one day but it really depends on what floral dye and liquid concentration you choose. The special rainbow roses and blue roses are the best gifts to your special someone.
