Abstract

A new and distinct hybrid tea rose plant having attractive large flowers.

Description

Botanical classification: Rosa hybrida.

Varietal denomination: ‘RUIY5451’.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of rose plant of the hybrid tea rose class, which was created by crossing an undistributed, unpatented seedling as seed parent with the variety known as ‘Pannaran’ as pollen parent (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,927). The varietal denomination of this new rose is named ‘RUIY5451’.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Among the novel characteristics possessed by this new variety which distinguishes it from its parents and all other varieties of which I am aware are its flower color.

Asexual reproduction by propagation by grafting and by vegetative cuttings of the new variety as performed in De Kwakel, The Netherlands shows that the foregoing and other distinguishing characteristics come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagation.

COMPARISON WITH PARENTS

The new variety differs from its parents in flower color, inasmuch as the flowers of ‘RUIY5451’ are orange red and flowers of the seed parent are cream and light pink and flowers of the pollen parent are pink blend with apricot tones.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE ILLUSTRATION

The accompanying illustration shows a typical specimen of the new variety depicted in color as nearly true as is reasonably possible to make the same in color illustrations of this character.

In the illustration, 1, 2, 3 and 4 show the foliage; 5 shows a stem portion; 6, 7, 8 and 9 show a bud and blooms at different stages of development; and 10, 11 and 12 show the reproductive organs.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW VARIETY

The following is a detailed description of the new variety with color terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart (R.H.S.C.C.). The terminology used in color description herein refers to plate numbers in the aforementioned color chart.
