| Abstract: |
A hybrid tea class rose plant having a vigorous, upright habit of growth; large, well-formed flowers; a moderate scent, and a color and petal count intermediate between its parents. |
| 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 vigorous upright habit of growth, its large, well-formed flowers, its moderate scent and a color and petal count intermediate between its parents. |
| Description: |
The present invention relates to a new anddistinct variety of rose plant of the hybrid tea class which was originated by the inventor by crossing the variety JACpico, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3997, with the variety JACtop, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,092.
The primary objective of this breeding was to produce a new rose variety having the excellent flower form and robust growth of JACpico combined with the larger open flowers and higher petal count of JACtop. The objective was substantiallyachieved along 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 amaware:
1. Large well-formed flowers;
2. Vigorous upright growth;
3. Moderate scent;
4. A color and petal count intermediate between its parents.
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 descriptions using terminology in accordance with the Horticultural Society (London) Colour Chart, except where ordinary dictionary significance of color isindicated.
