Lighter Blue Roses are Associated with Feelings
On the other end of the spectrum of blue, lighter shades of blue roses have meanings related to sensitive feelings and subjects, but they are not tied to the feelings you experience when you are falling in love or have a romantic interest in someone. Light blue roses and blue hydrangeas reflect calm and peacefulness, making them a welcome gift for anyone who manages a lot of stress in their lives.
Consider light blue roses’ meaning in this way when looking for a unique Mother’s Day flower arrangement, or keep blue flower arrangements in mind when giving gifts for Secretary and Personal Assistant’s Day, Boss’s Day, and for saying thank you to nurses, doctors, police, and other first responders.
During the impressionist era, great painters like Monet, VanGogh, and Manet frequently used blue flowers like irises and lilies in their work. They and the contemporary artists that followed them would often experiment with the hues of the blossoms to create a deeper blue than nature. This has tied blue flowers and blue roses’ meaning to creativity in many senses - which would suggest a blue rose bouquet might be a perfect gift for an actress on opening night, or a writer at a book signing.
One of the happiest, and often easiest forgotten meaning of blue roses and blue flowers is that of weddings. Few things fulfill the ‘something borrowed, something blue’ aspect better than blue roses tucked into a bridal bouquet.
Blue roses can also be a beautiful way to show friendship and support to a bride preparing for her special day. Many brides even choose to incorporate the color into bridesmaids’ ensembles, which makes blue roses a nice choice for the bridal party, and blue hydrangea balls tied to a ribbon are excellent for flower girls
