introduction

In this article, we will investigate whether there is a flower in nature that is naturally blue.

Are there natural blue flowers?

blue rose

Blue rose is one of the plants that is very popular, its other name is Dutch rose. This is one of the questions that some people ask, what is the sign of a natural rose, which we will discuss below?

Blue roses that are completely natural do not exist. Except for some types of lavender roses and certain cut roses, there are no true blue roses.

If you want blue roses, you should choose roses that have been cut, dyed, or colored. This is true if you want to put them in a vase or use them in a flower arrangement.

When it comes to garden and patio roses, there are no true blue roses. The blue rose is produced by genetics and changes in the metabolism of plant cells.

 Delphinium

The flowers of this flower also come in pink and white colors, but the tongues of the backs are among the best blue flowers available. It grows in clumps and likes cool, moist summers. Ideal for farms. Its true blue color is very rare.

Ipomoea

The flowers of this flower are heavenly blue. Note that this plant can be somewhat invasive.

Plumbago auriculata

This sprawling shrub with blue flowers thrives in the heat and full sun. One of the advantages of this plant is that it tolerates drought.

The plant grows well in tropical to subtropical climates and does not need much care. In the right climate, the sky-blue flowers bloom most of the year, so it’s worth growing at least once.

“Celestial Sky” Lotus

Few flowers have a true blue color like “sky blue”, and the creeping lily is one of them. You can keep this flower in a medium-sized pot at home.

The lotus flower likes to be in the sun and needs a warm climate. It should be kept in a bright place so that it can grow well. If it’s very sunny, move the pot to a less sunny place around noon.

Amsonia

There are many different species of Amsonia, so you can choose your favorite shade of blue. The small star-shaped flowers are abundant, and the flower clusters have a soft and plush texture.

That’s why this plant is sometimes called a blue star. The flowers stay on the plant for a few weeks, and the seed pods of this plant are also pretty.

Jamaican flower

There are more than 200 species of free floaters, but not all are blue. You might think that with 200 species you would be spoiled for choice, but most of these species grow at high altitudes and like cool, moist conditions.

 Blue anemone

This plant is a challenge for experienced growers. The challenge lies in caring for Blue Anemone, which originated in the remote mountains of southeastern Tibet.

It can only thrive in a cool, moist environment with plenty of shade. Many gardeners can create suitable conditions for this plant, although not everyone can replicate the exact conditions in Tibet. So it is worth a try.

hydrangeas

This beautiful flower can be grown in cold and relatively warm climates. It is one of the most beautiful blue flowers that can be grown at home.

Its color depends on the alkalinity of the soil and the content of various metal ions in the soil. If the soil is acidic, the flowers turn blue (adding sulfur lowers the pH of the soil)

This flower requires a pot with a diameter of at least 40 cm. The light needs of this flower are met by morning sun and afternoon shade. The soil in this pot should be moist.

Hydrangea flowers are mainly used for decoration, and eating them brings some toxic substances into the body, but the leaves of one species are carefully drunk as a kind of tea in Japan and Korea. 

As for the temperature, it likes temperate climates, but also grows in areas with tropical climates.

lobelias

Mertensia virginica

This wildflower from the East and Midwest is an ideal companion to daffodils and hysteria until it dies back and blooms again a year later.

Grow Virginia calyxes in moist, humus-rich soil; this way the plants will grow themselves in a colony. This early spring bloom also provides nectar for honeybees and other pollinators.

Blue flowers are hard to find and that’s what makes them so special. When you combine blue flowers with pink or orange flowers, you get a wonderful color scheme.
