| Abstract: |
A new rose variety of the Hybrid Tea class, characterized by its continuous good production of large very soft pink with an orange blend flowers having a very good presentation, borne singly on upright stems on a bush of medium height (100-120 cm), and that is especially suitable for growing in Latin America considering the prevailing light intensity, day length and seasonal effects. |
| 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 its large soft pink with anorange blend flowers, borne singly on strong, upright stems with rapid growing cycles and especially suitable for growing in Latin America. |
| Description: |
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
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 unnamed seedling (Z37.116) with the unnamed seedling (SR 85.055).
The primary objective of this breeding was to obtain a new large type rose with a good presentation and bud shape in a trendy color having a high production. Among the novel characteristics possessed by the new variety which distinguish it fromits parents and all other varieties of which I am aware are:
(1) A large flower and well shaped flower bud.
(2) The very soft pink color with an orange blend of the flower.
(3) Time of flowering is early to medium.
(4) Suitability for growing in Latin America.
(5) Rapid flowering cycles.
Asexual reproduction of the new rose variety by cutting and grafting using R. canina `Inermis` as rootstock, as performed in a greenhouse in Quito, Ecuador, shows that the aforementioned characteristics and distinctions come true to form and areestablished and transmitted through succeeding propagations.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The new variety of rose plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographic illustrations, of which:
Sheet 1 shows a full face view of the flower and
Sheet 2 shows typical specimens of the vegetative growth and flowers of the new variety in different stages of development and as depicted in color as nearly true as it reasonably possible to make the same in color illustrations of thischaracter.
The following is a detailed description of this new variety, with color terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart (R.H.S.C.C.). The terminology used in the color description herein refers to platenumbers in the aforementioned color chart e.g. "55C" is plate "55C" of The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart.
Parentage: Seedling.
Seed parent.--Unnamed seedling Z37.116.
Pollen parent.--Unnamed seedling SR 85.055.
Classification:
Commercial.--Hybrid Tea.
