Original image by Han Salzmann
Blue Flower's name comes from a non-existent blue flower first mentioned by the 19th Century German writer and poet Novalis in his unfinished novel, "Heinrich von Ofterdingen". This non-existent flower became for the German Romanticists a symbol of the unattainable and unending quest for perfection.

Blue Flower Press will continue to strive for perfection in all works published and distributed by Blue Flower. We welcome you to our web site and hope that you will one day find the Blue Flower.
