Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Rose plant named ‘ESM R044’, characterized by its upright, long and strong flowering stems; vigorous growth habit and high productivity; light red purple-colored flowers that are typically grown as single stems; excellent postproduction longevity; and relative tolerance to Downy Mildew and Botrytis.

Description

Botanical designation: Rosa hybrida.
Cultivar denomination: ‘ESM R044’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Rose plant, botanically known as Rosa hybrida, which is commercially produced as a cut flower Rose plant and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘ESM R044’.
The new Rose plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in El Quinche, Pichincha, Ecuador. The objective of the breeding program was to develop new cut flower Rose varieties with unique and attractive flowers and excellent postproduction longevity.
The new Rose plant originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in June, 2006 of a proprietary Rose selection identified as Line 370, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary Rose selection identified as Line 347, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Rose plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in El Quinche, Pichincha, Ecuador in November, 2007.
Asexual reproduction of the new Rose plant by bud grafting in El Quinche, Pichincha, Ecuador since March, 2008 has shown that the unique features of this new Rose plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the new Rose have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions and cultural practices. The phenotype of the new Rose plant may vary somewhat with variations in environmental conditions such as temperature and light intensity, without however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘ESM R044’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘ESM R044’ as a new and distinct Rose plant:
    • 1. Upright, long and strong flowering stems.
    • 2. Vigorous growth habit and high productivity.
    • 3. Light red purple-colored flowers that are typically grown as single stems.
    • 4. Excellent postproduction longevity.
    • 5. Relative tolerance to Downy Mildew and Botrytis.
Plants of the new Rose differ from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Rose are larger than plants of female parent selection.
    • 2. Plants of the new Rose have larger flowers than plants of female parent selection.
    • 3. Plants of the new Rose and the female parent selection differ in flower color as plants of the female parent selection have fuchsia-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Rose differ from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Rose are more vigorous than plants of the male parent selection.
    • 2. Plants of the new Rose have slightly smaller flowers than plants of male parent selection.
    • 3. Plants of the new Rose and the male parent selection differ in flower color as plants of the male parent selection have hot pink-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Rose can be compared to plants of Rose ‘Hot Party’, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in El Quinche, Pichincha, Ecuador, plants of the new Rose differed from plants of ‘Hot Party’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Rose were more vigorous than plants of ‘Hot Party’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Rose had smaller leaflets than plants of ‘Hot Party’.
    • 3. Plants of the new Rose had larger flowers than plants of ‘Hot Party’.
    • 4. Plants of the new Rose flowered later than plants of ‘Hot Party’.
    • 5. Plants of the new Rose and ‘Hot Party’ differed slightly in flower color.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Rose plant 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 plant.
The photograph at the left of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of typical flowering stem of ‘ESM R044’.
The photographs at the lower left and upper right of the sheet are close-up views of typical flowers of ‘ESM R044’.
The photographs at the bottom right of the sheet are close-up views of the upper and lower surfaces of typical leaves of ‘ESM R044’.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The aforementioned photographs, following observations and measurements describe plants grown in 10-liter containers in a polyethylene-covered greenhouse in El Quinche, Pichincha, Ecuador and under typical hydroponic Rose production practices. Plants were pinched about 13 to 14 weeks after planting. Plants were 69 weeks old when the photographs and detailed description were taken. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 16° C. to 30° C., night temperatures ranged from 12° C. to 16° C. and light levels ranged from 800 to 1,200 foot-candles.
