Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Rose plant named ‘Horcoherent’, characterized by its low spreading plant habit; glossy dark green-colored leaflets; orange, pink and yellow-colored double flowers; resistance to Black Spot and mildews; and good garden performance.

Description

Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Rosa hybrida cultivar Horcoherent.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Rose plant, botanically known as Rosa hybrida, commercially used as cut stems with fruits or hips, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Horcoherent’.
The new Rose is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Stansted, Essex, United Kingdom. The objective of the breeding program was to develop new shrub Rose varieties with winter hardiness, disease resistance and attractive flower coloration.
The new cultivar originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in 1994 of the Rose cultivar Flower Carpet, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,282, as the female, or seed, parent with the Rose cultivar Scrivluv, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The cultivar Horcoherent was discovered and selected by the Inventor in 1995 as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Stansted, Essex, United Kingdom.
Asexual reproduction of the new Rose by softwood cuttings at Stansted, Essex, United Kingdom since 1995, has shown that the unique features of this new Rose are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Horcoherent’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Horcoherent’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
    • 1. Low spreading plant habit.
    • 2. Glossy dark green-colored leaflets.
    • 3. Orange, pink and yellow-colored double flowers.
    • 4. Resistant to Black Spot and mildews.
    • 5. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Rose are most similar to plants of the parent cultivars. Compared to plants of the female parent, the cultivar Flower Carpet, plants of the new Rose flower earlier and differ in flower color as plants of the cultivar Flower Carpet have pink-colored flowers. Plants of the new Rose and the male parent, the cultivar Scrivluv, differ in flower form and color as plants of the cultivar Scrivluv have yellow-colored single flowers.
Plants of the new Rose can be compared to plants of the Rose cultivar Flower Carpet Appleblossom, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,239. Plants of the new Rose differ from plants of the cultivar Flower Carpet Appleblossom in time to flower and flower color as plants of the new Rose flower earlier than cultivar Flower Carpet Appleblossom and have darker pink-colored flowers.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Rose, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Rose.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical plant of ‘Horcoherent’.
The photograph on the second sheet is a close-up view of a typical flower of Horcoherent.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The new Rose has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature and light intensity, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The aforementioned photographs, following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Grand Haven, Mich., in an outdoor nursery and under commercial production practices. Plants were about four years old. The photographs and description were taken during the late summer. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
