| Abstract: |
Hybrid tea rose plant having distinctive bicolored flowers on stems of consistent length, thick petals, long vase life, vigorous upright growth habit and pleasing fragrance. |
| 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 bicolored flowers on stems of consistent length, thick petals, long vase life, vigorous upright growth habit and pleasing fragrance. |
| Description: |
The present invention relates to a new and distinctvariety of rose plant of the hybrid tea class which was originated by me by crossing the variety Jacara, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,316, with the variety Korlingo, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,846.
The primary objective of this breeding was to produce a new rose variety having the flower production and bicolor effect of the female parent combined with the excellent petal substance and flower form of the male parent. The objective wassubstantially achieved 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 ofwhich I am aware:
1. Vigorous, upright growth habit;
2. Long vase life;
3. Pleasant, moderately strong fragrance;
4. Bicolored flowers;
5. Thick petal substance;
6. Stems of consistent length.
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 description using terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society (London) Colour Chart, except where ordinary dictionary significance of coloris indicated.
