| Abstract: |
A hybrid tea rose variety having an upright plant similar in habit to the seed parent, flower color very close to R.H.S. 33A and then changing to R.H.S. 42C after a few days, numerous prickles, little or no fragrance, and very good resistance to rose powdery mildew. |
| 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 upright plant whose foliage is resistant to rose powdery mildew, stems which bear both large and small prickles, and whose blooms are orange (R.H.S. 33A) and lacking in fragrance. |
| Description: |
Thispresent invention relates to a new and distinct variety of rose plant of the hybrid tea class which was originated by me by crossing the variety Apricot Parfait, non-patented, with the variety Futura, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,569.
The primary object of this breeding was to produce a new rose variety combining the colors, mildew resistance, and other characteristics of Futura with the more erect and stiff stems of Apricot Parfait. This objective was substantially achievedalong with other desirable 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. An upright plant similar in habit to the seed parent, Apricot Parfait.
2. Flower color very close to R.H.S. 33A, changing to R.H.S. 42C after three or four days.
3. Numerous prickles, hooked downward and numerous small prickles.
4. Little or no fragrance.
5. Very good resistance to rose powdery mildew.
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.
