Definitions
- the present invention relates to a new Rosa hybrida plant.
- the new plant has the varietal denomination ‘WEKmorfis’.
- This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of Shrub Rose.
- the varietal denomination of the new variety is ‘WEKmorfis’. It has undisseminated seedlings of my creation as its seed and pollen parents.
- the new rose may be distinguished from its seed parent, an undisseminated seedling of my creation by the following combination of characteristics: whereas the undisseminated seedling bears moderately small flowers (about 3.8 to 4.9 cm. in diameter) and foliage, ‘WEKmorfis’ bears significantly larger flowers (about 5.7 to about 7.8 cm. in diameter) and foliage.
- the seed parent is a floribunda rose with a medium compact mature habit, whereas ‘WEKmorfis’ is classified as a shrub rose with a significantly larger and more spreading mature growing habit.
- the new variety may be distinguished from its pollen parent, an undisseminated seedling of my creation by the following combination of characteristics: whereas ‘WEKmorfis’ bears medium sized flowers of velvet dark purple coloration with a white eye and with semidouble petalage (about 7 to 9 petals), the undisseminated seedling bears significantly larger flowers of purple-pink coloration with more double petalage (about 15 to 20 petals).
- the pollen parent bears foliage with a very glossy finish, whereas ‘WEKmorfis’ bears foliage with a semiglossy finish.
- the new variety usually bears its flowers in clusters of three to five or more per stem. Flowers are borne in regular rounded to somewhat pyramidal clusters on strong medium to moderately long stems (about 48 to about 105 cm.). Outdoors, the plant blooms abundantly and nearly continuously during the growing season. The flowers have a strong clove to spicy fragrance.
- the peduncle is about 2.3 to about 4.4 cm. in length, of somewhat slender to average caliper (about 0.2 to about 0.3 cm. in diameter), and usually erect. It is moderately smooth, with many stipitate glands. Peduncle color is between 144B and 139B sometimes very lightly suffused, especially on the side exposed to the sun, with between 183C and 187C.
- the bud Before the calyx breaks, the bud is about 0.9 to about 1.3 cm. in diameter at the widest point, about 1.4 to about 1.7 cm. in length, and very pointed in shape.
- the surface of the bud bears some foliaceous appendages, usually with slender entire to slightly cut foliaceous parts extending beyond the tip of the bud about 1 ⁇ 4 or more of its length.
- Bud color is between 144A and 139B.
- the sepals are about 1.9 to about 2.7 cm. in length and about 0.5 to about 0.9 cm. in width at the widest point.
- the outer surface of the sepal is between 144A and 139B.
- the inner surface of the sepal is between 138B and 139C and covered with fine wooly tomentum; sepal margins are lined with numerous stipitate glands and hairs.
- the bud As the petals open (after the calyx breaks), the bud is about 1.7 to about 2.1 cm. in diameter at the widest point, about 2.3 to about 2.9 cm. in length, and pointed to somewhat ovoid in form.
- the color of the under and upper surfaces of the newly opened petals is near 60A at the center of the petal suffusing to as dark as near 59A toward the edge of the petal.
- At the point where the petal attaches on the under surface there is a small zone of between 5C and 4D.
- At the point where the petal attaches on the upper surface there is a slightly larger zone of near 6C.
- the coloration of this chevron is between 37C and 39C.
- the bloom When fully open, the bloom ranges from about 5.7 to about 7.8 cm. in diameter. Petalage is semi-double with about 7 to 9 petals and about 1 to 2 petaloids irregularly arranged.
- the bloom form When partially open, the bloom form is very cupped to somewhat globular, and the petals are loosely cupped with petal edges moderately reflexed inward to somewhat undulated.
- the bloom form When fully open, the bloom form is more loosely cupped, and the petals are less cupped with petal edges slightly reflexed outward to slightly undulated.
- the substance of the petals is moderately heavy and of somewhat thick thickness, with upper surfaces moderately velvety to somewhat satiny and under surfaces usually matte to slightly shiny.
- the outer and inner petals are broadly obovate to somewhat oval in shape with rounded apices.
- the petals are about 2.8 to about 3.4 cm. in length and about 1.9 to about 2.9 cm. in width at the widest point. Petal margins are entire.
- the under surface of the outer, intermediate and inner petals is between 71A and 70A. At the point where the petal attaches, there is a moderately small zone of between 4C and 6D.
- the upper surface of the outer, intermediate and inner petals is between 71B and 64A near the center of the petal that gradually suffuses to darker than between 71A and 187A toward the edge of the petal.
- At the point where the petal attaches there is a large zone of between 12D and 155D.
- the coloration of this chevron is between 69D and 76D.
- the general tonality of the newly opened flower is between 71B and 64A near the center of the petal that gradually suffuses to darker than between 71A and 187A toward the edge of the petal.
- At the very center of the flower there is a ‘eyezone’ pattern consisting of the basal attachment zone of between 12D and 155D and the chevron marking of between 69D and 76D in coloration.
- the under surface of the outer and inner petals is between 77A and 70A. At the point where the petal attaches, there is a moderately small zone of between 155B and 155D.
- the upper surface of the outer and inner petals is between 78B and 64A near the center of the petal that gradually suffuses to darker than between 79A and 70A toward the edge of the petal.
- At the point where the petal attaches there is a large zone of between 155C and 155D.
- the coloration of this chevron is between 69D and 155D.
- the general tonality of the three-day-old flower is between 78B and 64A near the center of the petal that gradually suffuses to darker than between 79A and 70A toward the edge of the petal.
- At the very center of the flower there is a ‘eyezone’ pattern consisting of the basal attachment zone of between 155C and 155D and the chevron marking of between 69D and 155D in coloration.
- Stamens are average in number (average about 91) and are arranged regularly about the pistils; a few are mixed with petaloids.
- the filaments are of medium to somewhat long length (about 0.5 to about 1.0 cm.), most with anthers. Filaments are near 59B in color.
- the anthers are of medium size for the class and all open approximately at the same time. Anther color is near 20A when immature and between 163C and 165A at maturity. Pollen is abundant.
- Pistils vary in number (average about 30). The styles are moderately even, average in length (about 0.4 to about 0.6 cm.), average in caliper, and somewhat loosely bunched to columnar. Stigma color is between 1C and 2C. Style color is near 59A. Ovaries are usually all enclosed in the calyx.
- Hips are of average length (about 1.8 to about 2.3 cm.), moderately globular in form, and between 25A and 28B in color when ripe.
- the hip surface is very smooth with thick fleshy walls.
- the sepals are moderately permanent.
- the seeds are irregularly rounded, smooth in texture, approximately 7 to about 10 per hip, about 0.3 to about 0.5 cm. in diameter at the widest point and between 160C and 162C in color.
- the compound leaves are usually comprised of three to five or more leaflets and are borne abundantly.
- the five-leaflet leaves are about 10.2 to about 13.3 cm. in length and about 6.8 to about 8.9 cm. in width at the widest point, somewhat heavy and leathery in texture, and semi-glossy in finish.
- the terminal leaflets are about 3.6 to about 5.7 cm. in length and about 2.8 to about 4.2 cm. in width at the widest point, shaped broadly ovate to somewhat oval with moderately acute to slightly acuminate apices and moderately round to somewhat acute bases.
