Abstract

Shrub rose plant having repeat flowering of white blooms having a strong, clove fragrance; on upright, well-branched growth; and excellent disease resistance.

Description

The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of rugosa rose plant of the shrub class which was originated by me by crossing the variety `Pirette`, (unpatented), with the variety `Pirette`, (unpatented).
The primary objective of this breeding was to examine the variability within the hybrid rugosa variety `Pirette`. Ripe self-pollinated hips were collected and seed was harvested. A total of 618 seeds were collected and germinated. Several seedlings were selected and propagated by softwood cuttings. `JACruwhi` was eventually selected as being significantly different and superior to its parent `Pirette`, as evidenced by the following unique combination of characeristics that are outstanding in the new variety and that distinguish it from its parent, as well as from all other varieties of which I am aware:
1. White blooms;
2. Repeat flowering;
3. Upright, well-branched growth;
4. Excellent disease resistance; and
5. Strong fragrance.
`JACruwhi` differs significantly in flower color (White Group 155B versus Red-Purple Group 61C) and petal count (5 petals versus 15-20 petals) from its parent `Pirette`.
Asexual reproduction of this new rugosa variety by softwood cuttings, as performed at Wasco, Calif., shows that the foregoing and all other characteristics and distinctions come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations.
The accompanying illustration shows typical speimens 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 this character.
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 color is indicated.
