Why do Blue roses breed like crazy once you get it unlike other hybrids?

So in my new town, it took months until I got my first blue rose, but not even after a few days of TT... I already have like 20+ of them. They spawn like crazy! I feel like the spawn rate of it is 100000%. Whereas the other hybrids, though they seem easier, doesn't always produce a hybrid the next day. There's also a chance they'd spawn red/yellow/white. Please tell me this happens to everyone?

Getting Pink/orange tulips & Pink cosmos was such a pain to get more, compared to the blue rose. Which sounds crazy I know. But if I were to open my shop right now I could probably sell a stock of 40 blue roses while I barely have 20 pink tulips.
Of course, nothing is more difficult than getting 1 blue rose at first but all is worth it after seeing the amount of roses it spawned.
This happened to my main town as well, but the difference is I didn't get my first 2 roses myself so I can't compare it with hybrids I did grow slowly.

Every hybrid has an amount of stability to it. Purple Roses/Pansies/Tulips, Blue Pansies/Roses, and all the Black flowers are quite stable - sometimes they may spawn a non-hybrid, but that's pretty rare.

Orange flowers are unstable - but I find that as you keep spawning oranges from other oranges, and keep isolating the offspring to spawn more, the offspring get much more stable - almost to the point of the blue rose.

Pinks are very stubborn - especially pink tulips and cosmos. I'm still figuring out how to make them stable, and it is quite difficult - Even as I keep going through many generations of offspring, they still keep spawning non-hybrids of them.

Pink Roses and Lilies are easier, though - only breed with red + red based ones (don't breed with white ones at all), and they are quite stable.

That's exactly what I've been doing with the oranges & pinks. Separating & isolating the offspring. Still a struggle. But I'm glad I'm not the only who who find it difficult to find stable pink tulips & cosmos.

Sometimes I'd be like... okay, I'm ONLY watering pink tulips & cosmos today. But the next day either no hybrids spawn or a white/red one spawns. And it's frustrating, so I'll just end up not dedicating to it and watering other hybirds too instead because I feel like it's a waste of new day when not much hybrids spawns.
 
ha funny how im experiencing differently. blue roses are hard af to breed in my town and others are easy.

I'd use more specific strategies, like how you're using red and white to breed pink roses and lilies, rather than pink and pink.

If you use a guide like this one (German, but with pictures - couldn't find an English one quick enough, sorry), you can see how it may be best to consider not only flower color but type, as well, instead of just using the same strategy according to color everywhere.

So, for instance, orange and orange can get you six different cosmos colors, five different lily colors, but also only orange roses. So, it's great strategy for roses, but for cosmos and lilies, black and yellow would probably be better.

Assuming that all possibilities have equal odds of appearing, and that the guide is mostly correct, for pink tulips, I would use black and white, which would give you a 50% chance of pinks, and for cosmos the red and white strategy should also work, which supposedly results in pink 100% of the time.

And then, of course, there's consistently only watering the hybrids you want to spawn, like Underneath the Stars mentioned, if you're going for specific ones and not just breeding to breed everything.

That being said, Arceus knows I don't stick to that myself, and only just decided to look at the guide more closely to write this post. ^^;

This was incredibly informative. Thank you!

The strategy I speak of is this:

Red Roses and Lilies are different, in that two of each other can also produce Pink Flowers - not just red and black ones. It is only recently I found that pinks bred this way are more stabler for spawning more pinks.

I.e.: Skip the red + white method for getting Pink roses and lillies - the red + red method is way better for stable ones.

Additionally, the 'traditional strategy' is already the unstable method in the first place: If you do red + white, you still can spawn non-hybrids from them. We're talking about breeding stability, where if you pair 2 flowers, you are almost guaranteed to spawn the hybrid you want, as opposed to a different flower.
