Abstract
A variety of rose plant of the shrub class, named ‘AUSboxer’. The ‘AUSboxer’ rose is a plant suitable for repeat cut-flower production having rich creamy-white buds with a pink blush and a Myrrh fragrance.
Description
Classification: The present invention relates to a new Rosa hybrida shrub.
Variety denomination: The new plant has the varietal denomination ‘AUSboxer’.
The current application claims priority to a European Community Plant Variety Application No. 2010/2727, filed Dec. 6, 2010, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference.
This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of shrub rose plant named ‘AUSboxer’, which was originated by crossing two unnamed, unpatented varieties of Rosa hybrida.
The primary objective of this breeding was to produce a rose with blush pink buds, which gradually open to reveal large, many-petalled blooms, which are predominately creamy-white, but delicately brushed with pink, with a Myrrh fragrance, and having a long vase life as a cut rose, produced on strong upright stems, which are suitable for year round cut-flower production under standard greenhouse conditions.
Among the features which distinguish the new variety from others presently available and commercial rose cultivars known to the inventor is the following combination of characteristics: predominately creamy-white buds that are brushed with pink, and a Myrrh fragrance.
Asexual reproduction of the new variety by budding as performed in greenhouses at Bowling Green Lane in Albrighton, Britain shows that the foregoing and other distinguishing characteristics come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding asexual propagations. ‘AUSboxer’ may be asexually propagated by budding. The budding successfully occurred on the plant/rootstock Rosa cv. ‘Inermis.’
The new rose may be distinguished from its seed parent, by the following combination of characteristics: whereas the seed parent is a deep yellow rose with no fragrance, ‘AUSboxer’ bears a creamy-white bloom with a blush of pink and has a myrrh fragrance.
The new variety may be distinguished from its pollen parent, by the following combination of characteristics: whereas the pollen parent is of a deeper pink with a larger bloom and a powerful fragrance, ‘AUSboxer’ has a creamy-white bloom with only a blush of pink and has a moderate myrrh fragrance.
The closest commercially available cultivar to the new variety is the ‘AUSneil’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 17,317). The new rose may be distinguished from the ‘AUSneil’ variety by the following combination of characteristics: the ‘AUSneil’ produces white blooms, but with no pink and fewer petals, compared to ‘AUSboxer’ which produces creamy-white blooms having a pink blush. In addition, another close cultivar is ‘AUSlevel’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,765). The new rose may be distinguished from the ‘AUSlevel’ variety by the following combination of characteristics: the ‘AUSlevel’ produces blooms of a similar colour to the ‘AUSboxer’ shade of creamy-white, but with no pink shading.
The accompanying photograph illustrates the new variety and shows the flowering thereof from bud to full bloom depicted in color as nearly correct as it is possible to make in a color illustration of the character. Throughout this specification, color references and/or values are based upon The Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society (2001) except where common terms of color definition are employed.
The following description is of 1 year-old rose plants of the new variety grown indoors in a greenhouse in Albrighton, Britain in the month of July. Phenotypic expression may vary with environmental, cultural and climatic conditions, as well as differences in conditions of light and soil.
