| Abstract: |
A hybrid tea class rose plant having a bright red stable flower color; long, straight stems; vigorous, upright growth; good yield or cut flowers; good vase life; and thick, heavy petals. |
| 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 bright red stable flower color, its long, straight stems, its vigorous, upright growth, its good yield of cut flowers, its good vase life and its thick, heavy petals. |
| Description: |
The present inventionrelates to a new and distinct variety of rose plant of the Hybrid tea class which was originated by me by crossing the variety KORlingo, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,846, with an unnamed seedling.
The primary objective of this breeding was to produce a new rose variety having the excellent petal substance and bright red color of KORlingo and the longer stems of the unnamed seedling. The objective was substantially achieved along withother 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. Vigorous upright habit of growth;
2. Long, strong, straight stems;
3. Bright red, stable flower color;
4. Thick, heavy petal substance;
5. Good yield (175 to 200 stems per m.sup.2) and good vase life.
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 Royal Horticultural Society (London) Colour Chart, except where ordinary dictionary significance of coloris indicated.
