Abstract: A hybrid tea rose created by crossing the variety JACmas, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,998, with the variety JACrose, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,850, is characterized by its strong, pleasant fragrance, its unusual and distinctive red and yellow-orange flower color, its resistance to powdery mildew and rust, its many flowers, and the presence of glands on the stipules, sepals and peduncles and many small prickles on the rachis underside.
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 strong pleasant fragrance, its unusual and distinctive flower color, the presence of glands on peduncles, stipules and sepals, the presence of many small prickles on the rachis underside and its resistance to powdery mildew and rust in Somis,Calif.
Description: The present 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 JACmas, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,998,with the variety JACrose, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,850.

The primary objective of this breeding was to produce a new rose variety having the large flower and fragrance of JACmas combined with the abundant flowers of the variety JACrose. The 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. Strong, pleasing fragrance;

2. Unusual flower color;

3. Presence of glands on stipules, sepals and peduncle;

4. Presence of many small hooked prickles on the rachis underside;

5. Resistance to powdery mildew and rust;

6. Production of many flowers.

Asexual reproduction of this new variety by budding, as performed at Wasco and Somis, Calif., shows that the foregoing characteristics and distinctions come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations.

The accompanying photograph 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 colorillustration of this character.

The following is a detailed description of my new rose cultivar with color descriptions using terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society (London) Colour Chart, except where ordinary dictionarysignificance of color is indicated.
