Abstract
‘SAVacon’ is a new and distinct variety of miniature rose plant primarily identified by its near white buds opening flat to near white flowers with intense fragrance and its glossy dark green foliage on a compact plants.
Description
This present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of hardy, bush type plant of the miniature rose class, whose near white flowers bear some resemblance in form only to those of its seed parent, ‘SAVasach’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,967; ‘Sachet’) but being slightly larger when full open. The distinguishing characeristics between this new miniature rose plant and other varieties of which I am aware with a similar near white coloration are its strong fragrance, the size and form of its bloom on a plant of compact bushy habit.
Be it known that John M. Saville claims new and useful improvements in ROSE PLANT/Var.SAVacon and following is a clear and exact description of the same.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of hardy, dwarf, bush type rose of the miniature rose class, Rosa chinensis ‘Minima’, having a very fragrant flower and being a plant which grows and blooms satisfactorily both in the greenhouse and outdoors; provides decoration as a garden perennial or specimen plant; and is good for growing in containers with protection recommended through the winter in severe climates.
The present variety of miniature rose was created in a greenhouse in Rowley, Mass., under conditions of careful control and observation by crossing the following two rose plants:
The seed parent is ‘SAVasach’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,967; ‘Sachet’), a miniature rose plant of spinel red coloring and strong fragrance.
The pollen parent is ‘MACgenev’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,279; ‘Aoteara-New Zealand’, ‘New Zealand’) a hybrid tea rose of mainly apricot coloration and strong fragrance.
The blooms of this new invention are similar to those of its seed parent, ‘SAVasach’, only in petal form and the way the flowers open but being slightly larger in size. The fragrance of this new invention is similar to but stronger than that of its seed parent, ‘SAVasach’ and different from but as strong as that of its pollen parent, ‘MACgenev’.
Asexual propagation by cuttings of this new variety shows that all distinguishing characteristics of this rose continually come true to form.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of the miniature rose class being primarily characterized — as to novelty — by fragrance in a miniature rose of this coloring, which is near white.
The variety is further characterized by:
An abundance of recurrent bloom, with flowers most often borne singly.
A plant which is vigorous, upright and somewhat spreading yet compact, with dark green glossy foliage.
Very few thorns.
The accompanying color photograph shows specimens of the flower of this new variety in different stages of development as grown inside, under plastic in May in Essex County, Mass.
Following is a detailed description in outline form pertaining specifically to this new and distinct variety of miniature rose plant, as observed on 3 year old plants grown inside under plastic in 1.8 gallon containers. All major color plate identifications made are referring to The Royal Horticulture Society Colour Chart except where common terms of color definition are employed.
