[quote:czygyny:MV82NTUzMzZfMTAwMDUyODFfMTI0QjQ2RTY=] Oh, goody...genetically modified flowers! I am an avid gardener, but this trans-genetic monster is no better than the GM corn, soybeans and rice we are being exposed to. It mucks up the gene pool. I believe it should be called a 'prose', btw. [/quote]

They are the stuff of legend - signifying mystery and traditionally believed to be able to grant the owner youth.
For years breeders have crossed different colours of roses in an effort to create the impossible. But rose petals lack the enzyme needed to create a blue pigment and the breeders always failed.
Now for the first time, thanks to genetic engineering, blue roses finally exist.
