Abstract

A new white miniature rose plant which has abundant non-fading flowers and very good keepability. The variety successfully propagates from softwood cuttings and is suitable for year round production in commercial glasshouses. This new and distinct variety has shown to be uniform and stable in the resulting generations from such asexual propagation.

Description

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention constitutes a new and distinct variety of miniature rose plant which originated from a controlled crossing between unnamed seedlings in a cultivated area. The two parents were crossed during the summer of 1993 and the resulting seed was planted during December, 1993 in a controlled environment. The new variety is named `POULezy`.
The objective of the hybridization of this rose variety for commercial greenhouse culture was to create a new and distinct variety with:
1. Uniform and abundant flowers with excellent keepability;
2. Attractive long lasting foliage and compact growth,
3. Year-round flowering under glasshouse conditions;
4. Suitability for production from softwood cuttings in pots;
5. Durable flowers and foliage which make a variety suitable for distribution in the floral industry.
This combination of qualities is not present in previously available commercial cultivars of this type and distinguish `POULezy` from all other varieties of which we are aware.
The seeds from the hybridization were germinated in February, 1994 and evaluations were conducted of the resulting rose plants in a controlled environment.
`POULezy` was selected by L. Pernille and Mogens N. Olesen in their rose development program in Fredensborg, Denmark in June, 1994.
Asexual reproduction of `POULezy` by cuttings as well as by traditional budding was first done by L. Pernille and Mogens N. Olesen in August, 1994. These initial and subsequent propagations have demonstrated that the characteristics of `POULezy` are true to type and are transmitted from one generation to the next.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The accompanying color illustrations show as true as is reasonably possible to obtain in color photographs of this type, the typical characteristics of the buds, flowers, leaves, stems, and a plant of `POULezy`. Specifically illustrated in SHEET 1: 1. Stem or entire plant showing branching and the attachment of leaves, buds, and peduncles; 2. Flower bud, partially opened bud, and open bloom; 3. Flower petals, detached; 4. Sepals, receptacle, and pedicel; 5. Flowering stem as well as a bare stem exhibiting thorns; 6. Leaves.
Specifically illustrated in SHEET 2 is an entire blooming plant in a 10 cm pot.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE VARIETY
The following is a detailed description of `POULezy` as observed in its growth in glasshouses in Fredensborg, Denmark and Half Moon Bay, Calif. and in field nursery in Applegate, Oreg. Descriptions were made from plants treated with growth regulators normally used in the greenhouse production process.
The growth regulator Paclobutrazol was applied to 30 ppm weekly for three weeks beginning at a plant age of 8 weeks. The peduncle lengths mentioned may actually be shorter and the foliage color several shades darker than on untreated specimens. Color references are made using The Royal Horticultural Society (London, England) Colour Chart, 1995.
For a comparison, the nearest existing rose variety is `POULbian`, a patented variety described and illustrated in U.S. Plant Pat. No.9,280 and issued on Sep. 12, 1995. Chart 1 lists two physical characteristics of `POULezy` and the comparison variety.
