Sapphire Blue Chrysanthemums - Photograph by Dora Sofia Caputo
These Blue Mums are part of a beautiful Spring bouquet of flowers given to me by my son, on Easter Sunday.
Chrysanthemum flower is one of the most popular flowers in the world, next only to Roses.
True blue flowers are a rarity in nature—they occur only in select species like morning glories and delphiniums. Now, researchers have created a genuinely blue chrysanthemum by adding two genes to the normally pink or reddish flower. The advance could be applied to other species—and it may mean that florists wanting to hawk blooms of blue will no longer have to dye them.
