| Abstract: |
A new variety of Hybrid Tea rose plant producing white flowers. |
| Claim: |
I claim:
1. A new and distinct variety of rose plant of the Hybrid Tea rose class, substantially as shown and described. |
| Description: |
SUMMARY OFTHE INVENTION
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 parents two unnamed, unpatented, proprietary seedlings of our creation. The varietal denominationof this new rose is `Poulari`.
Among the novel characteristics possessed by this new variety which distinguishes it from its parents are its attractive white flowers produced on a plant with shiny foliage and which open well in both hot and cool climates.
Asexual reproduction by budding of the new variety as performed in Watsonville, Calif., shows that the foregoing and other distinguishing characteristics come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATION
The accompanying illustration shows typical specimens of the flowers and vegetative growth of the new variety depicted in color as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make the same in a color illustration of this character. Phenotypicexpression, including colors, may vary depending upon growing conditions, such as climate, soil, and cultivation conditions.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW VARIETY
The following is a detailed description of my new variety, with color terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Color Chart (RHSCC). The terminology used in color description herein refers to plate numbers in theaforementioned color chart. Where general terms such as average, normal, ordinary, medium, etc. are used, the characteristics so described are not considered distinguishing.
