Abstract

Shrub/climber rose plant having medium-sized, soft yellow blooms, vigorous growth, free and continuous flowering, and slightly fruity fragrance.

Description

Genus and species: Rosa hybrida.
Variety denomination: ‘AUSchesnut’.
ORIGIN OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of a shrub rose plant named ‘AUSchesnut’ which was originated by me by crossing the variety ‘AUSgold’ (Golden Celebration), U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,688 with an unnamed, unpatented seedling.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The primary objective of this breeding was to produce a free flowering and healthy variety rose, having arching growth with soft yellow blooms of an informal nature, and a subtle fruity fragrance.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The objective was substantially achieved, along with other desirable improvements, as evidenced by the following unique combination of characteristics that are outstanding in the new variety and that distinguish it from its parents, as well as from all other varieties of which I am aware:
    • 1. Medium-sized, soft yellow blooms.
    • 2. Growth of medium vigor.
    • 3. Free and continuous flowering.
    • 4. Slight fruity fragrance.
Asexual reproduction of this new variety by budding, as performed at Albrighton, England, shows that the foregoing and all other characteristics and distinctions come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations.
Comparison with Parents
‘AUSgold’ has large, cupped, golden-yellow flowers on a medium shrub, compared with the medium sized soft yellow blooms of ‘AUSchesnut’. The pollen parent has medium sized pink blooms.
Comparison with Similar Variety
‘AUSpoly’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,008) has more pointed petals, and is a shrub of moderate size, whereas ‘AUSchesnut’ is a large arching shrub, with paler yellow blooms.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE ILLUSTRATION
The accompanying illustration shows typical specimens 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.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
