| Abstract: |
A new hydrid tea rose with bright red flowers. |
| Claim: |
I claim:
1. A new distinct variety of rose plant of the hybrid tea rose class, substantially as shown and described. |
| Description: |
SUMMARY OF THEINVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of rose plant of the hybrid tea rose class which was originated by my crossing as seed parent an unnamed and unpatented seedling of my creation and as pollen parent the variety known as`Karma`. The varietal denomination of this new rose is `Hoagy Carmichael.`
Among the novel characteristics possessed by this new variety which distinguishes it from its parents and all other varieties of which I am aware are its attractive well formed bright red flowers borne on a plant particularly suitable for growingoutdoors in gardens. Flowers open well and hold their coloring as blooms age. Asexual reproduction by propagation by budding of the new variety as performed in Clackamas County, Oreg., shows that the foregoing and other distinguishing characteristicscome true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATION
The accompanying illustration shows typical specimens of the vegetative growth and flowers of the new variety in different stages of development and depicted in color as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make the same in a colorillustration of this character.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW VARIETY
The new variety is an unusually fine hybrid tea rose with a rich, clear, substantially unfading color to petal drop, even in extreme heat. Flowers are perfectly spiraled, well shaped and of good exhibition-type form. Petals roll and quill topoints, giving a star-like appearance to the blooms.
The following is a detailed description of my new variety, with color terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart (R.H.S.C.C.). The terminology used in color description herein refers to plate numbers in theaforementioned color chart.

Seed parent.--Unnamed seedling.
