| Abstract: |
A hybrid tea rose variety having a vigorous, upright plant producing straight stems; pointed yellow buds; glossy, dark green foliage; absence of prickles on lower edges of rachis. |
| 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 ofdeep yellow, pointed buds born on long straight stems, with glossy mildew resistent foliage, no prickles on rachises. |
| Description: |
This present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of rose plantnamed Jacgold of the hybrid tea class which was originated by me by crossing an unnamed variety with the variety Sunshine, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,791.
The primary objective of this breeding was to produce a new rose variety suitable for the production of cut blooms when grown in a greenhouse. This objective was substantially achieved along with other desirable improvements as evidenced by thefollowing 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 vigorous, upright plant producing very straight stems, mostly of a length of 18 inches to 30 inches.
2. Pointed yellow buds, darker than those of the variety Emblem (JP 76-5492) and faded less.
3. Foliage more glossy and slightly darker color than that of Emblem.
4. High degree of resistance to rose powdery mildew.
5. Absence of prickles on lower edges of rachis.
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 terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart except where ordinary dictionary significance of color is indicated.
