| Abstract: |
A hybrid tea rose variety having orange and yellow flowers on a medium size bush. |
| Claim: |
I claim:
1. A new and distinct variety of rose plant of the hybrid tea class, substantially as herein shown and described, characterized particularly as to novelty by the unique combination ofits medium size (41/2') bush, orange and yellow flowers, short peduncles having both glands and prickles and its very slight to non-existent fragrance. |
| Description: |
This present invention relates to a newand distinct variety of rose plant of the hybrid tea class which was originated by me by crossing the variety Ludwigshafen am Rhein with pollen of the variety, Feuerzauber.
The primary objective of this breeding was to produce a new rose variety of the hybrid tea class, producing freely large blooms of orange and yellow colors, in a bicolor effect. This objective was substantially achieved along with otherdesirable improvements as evidenced by the following unique combination of characteristics which are outstanding in the new variety and which distinguish it from its parents as well as from all other varieties of which I am aware:
1. A medium size hybrid tea bush.
2. Flowers of generally orange color on upper side of petals, yellow on lower side.
3. Short peduncles, having both small prickles and stipitate glands.
4. Little or no fragrance.
Asexual reproduction of this new variety by budding, as performed at Wasco, Calif., shows that the foregoing characteristics and distinctions come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations.
Theaccompanying illustration shows typical specimens of the vegetative growth and flowers of this new variety in different stages of development, depicted in color as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make the same in a color illustration of thischaracter.
The following is a detailed description of my new rose cultivar with color in terminology in accordance with the Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart except where ordinary dictionary significance of color is indicated.
