Abstract

A new and distinct variety of Miniature rose plant is provided which forms attractive bright yellow blossoms commonly with a margin of orange-red on the outer petals. When grown outside, more orange-red coloration commonly is displayed on the outer petals. The first blooming commonly occurs early in the season. A bushy growth habit is displayed. Very dense medium green semi-glossy foliage is formed. Good tolerance to diseases has been observed particularly with respect to Botrytis. The plant is well suited for pot forcing under greenhouse growing conditions to form a distinctive gift plant.

Description

Botanical/commercial classification: Rosa hybrida/Miniature Rose Plant.
Varietal denomination: cv. Meigenpi.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new variety of Rosa hybrida Miniature rose plant was created by artificial pollination wherein two parents were crossed which previously had been studied in the hope that they would contribute the desired characteristics. The female parent (i.e., the seed parent) of the new variety was the ‘Meitomkin’ variety (non-patented in the United States). The male parent (i.e., the pollen parent) was the product of the cross of the ‘Savalife’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,482) and the ‘Meivoufal’ variety (U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 10/844,340, filed May 13, 2004). The parentage of the new variety can be summarized as follows:
‘Meitomkin’×(‘Savalife’בMeivoufal’).
The seeds resulting from the above pollination were sown and small plants were obtained which were physically and biologically different from each other. Selective study resulted in the identification of a single plant of the new variety.
It was found that the new variety of Miniature rose plant of the present invention possesses the following combination of characteristics:
    • (a) exhibits a bushy growth habit,
    • (b) forms attractive bright yellow blossoms commonly with a margin of orange-red on the outer petals,
    • (c) forms very dense medium green semi-glossy foliage, and
    • (d) is well suited for pot forcing under greenhouse growing conditions.
The new variety well meets the needs of the horticultural industry. The first blooming commonly occurs early in the season. It is particularly well suited for pot forcing under greenhouse growing conditions to form a distinctive gift plant. It also can be grown to advantage outside, such as along walkways and in mixed border plantings. The bright yellow blossoms commonly initially display red undertones that transform to orange-red on the outer petal margins when opening. When grown outside, more orange-red coloration commonly is displayed on the petals.
The new variety has been found to undergo asexual propagation in France by a number of routes, including budding, grafting, and cuttage. Asexual propagation by the above-mentioned methods as performed in the South of France has shown that the characteristics of the new variety are strictly transmissible from one generation to another.
The new variety of the present invention can be readily distinguished from its ancestors. For instance, the ‘Meitomkin’ variety displays a considerably taller growth habit and the ‘Savalife’ variety forms smaller foliage. Also, the blossoms of the ‘Meivoufal’ are smaller and lack orange-red coloration at the margins of the outer petals.
The new variety of the present invention also can be readily distinguished from the ‘Meiskaille’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 14,274) and the ‘Meitoleil’ variety (non-patented in the United States). More specifically, the ‘Meiskaille’ variety forms larger blossoms which bear no orange-red coloration at the margins of the petals, and the ‘Meitoleil’ variety likewise forms blossoms which lack orange-red coloration on the petal margins.
The new variety has been named ‘Meigenpi’, and is being marketed under the RAINBOW SUNBLAZE trademark.

 DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The chart used in the identification of the colors is that of The Royal Horticultural Society (R.H.S. Colour Chart).
