Abstract

A new and distinct variety of Creeping rose plant, herein referred to by its cultivar name, ‘Meilowmye’, is provided which forms in abundance on a nearly continuous basis attractive, cup-shaped, flowers that are yellow colored in the course of opening and salmon colored when completely open. Attractive, semi-glossy foliage is formed and the plant is healthy, compact, and low. The tolerance to disease is good, particularly with respect to black spot. The new variety is well suited for providing attractive ornamentation in the landscape.

Description

Botanical/commercial classification:
Latin name—Rosa hybrida.
Common name—Creeping Rose Plant.
Varietal denomination—‘Meilowmye’.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new variety of Rosa hybrida Creeping rose plant of the present invention 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., seed parent) of the new variety was the product of the cross of the ‘Meijeunom’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 19,143) and the ‘Meiglise’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 15,960). The male parent (i.e., pollen parent) was the ‘Meibalneo’ variety (non-patented in the United States).
The parentage can be summarized as follows:
(‘Meijeunom’ x ‘Meiglise’) x ‘Meibalneo’.
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 Creeping rose plant of the present invention possesses the following combination of characteristics:
    • (a) displays a healthy, compact, and low plant,
    • (b) exhibits a yellow coloration of the flower in the course of opening to a salmon coloration once completely open,
    • (c) blooming is early in the season and is very abundant and nearly continuous,
    • (d) shows a good tolerance to disease, particularly with respect to black spot, and
    • (e) is well suited for providing attractive ornamentation.
The new variety well meets the needs of the horticultural industry. It can be grown to advantage as ornamentation in parks, gardens, public areas, and in residential settings. Accordingly, the plant is particularly well suited for growing in the landscape.
The new variety can be readily distinguished from its ancestors. More specifically, while the new variety has flowers that are yellow to salmon in coloration, the ‘Meijeunom’ variety displays ivory-white colored flowers, the ‘Meiglise’ variety displays white flowers, and the (‘Meijeunome’ x ‘Meiglise’) variety (i.e., the seed parent) displays white flowers. Further, the ‘Meibalneo’ variety (i.e., the pollen parent) typically has more than 90 petals per flower, while the new variety has 32 petals per flower, on average.
The new variety has been found to undergo asexual propagation in Le Cannet des Maures, Var, France by a number of routes, including budding, grafting, and the rooting of cuttings. Asexual propagation by the above-mentioned techniques in France has shown that the characteristics of the new variety are stable and strictly transmissible by such asexual propagation from one generation to another. Accordingly, the new variety undergoes asexual propagation in a true-to-type manner.
The new variety has been named ‘Meilowmye’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photographs show, as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make the same in color illustrations of this character, typical specimens of the new variety. The illustrated rose plants of the new variety were approximately two years of age and were observed during July while budded on their own roots and growing outdoors at Le Cannet des Maures, Var, France. Dimensions in centimeters are indicated at the bottom of the photograph. Standard color information is included at the bottom of the photograph.

DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The chart used in the identification of colors is that of The Royal Horticultural Society (R.H.S. Colour Chart, 2001 Edition), London, England. The terminology which precedes reference to the chart has been added to indicate the corresponding color in more common terms.
