Abstract
A new variety of hybrid Asiatic lily particularly distinguished by its large clusters of medium size flowers of a pure rose color tone which is unique in the hybrid Asiatic divisions of lilies suited to forcing and commercial cultivation, the flowers being of excellent form and long persistence both on the plant and as cut-flowers. The plant itself is highly resistant to disease, shows high tolerance to virus, and is an excellent garden plant. Also, this plant is very vigorous, is a good grower and propagator, and the bulbs may be precooled and forced for cut-flower production.
Description
My new variety of lily plant originated as a seedling resulting from my cross of a hybrid clone from a group of "Hallmark"×"Destiny" (unpatented) as the seed parent and "Juliana" (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,333) as the pollen parent, that crossing having been done at Sandy, Oreg., in the course of breeding efforts carried on by me since 1976 with the object of producing upright Asiatic lilies in the rose-pink color tones heretofore unknown in the lily breeding art.
This new variety of lily plant has been asexually reproduced by me and under my direction at Sandy, Oreg., and successive generations produced by bulb scale propagation and natural propagation from bulblets have demonstrated that the novel and distinctive characteristics of this new plant hold true from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed.
This new plant possesses all of the desired characteristics of excellence of form, color and habit, and in addition, possesses to a high degree the desirable characteristics of hybrid vigor, great hardiness and disease resistance; and additionally, the clone is a vigorous grower and a good propagator as observed at Sandy, Oreg.
My new variety of lily plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which shows buds and open blooms, partially hand-painted to show the true color, and illustrating the flower form and the petal arrangement.
The following is a detailed description of my new variety of Asiatic lily as observed at Sandy, Oreg., with color designations according to The R.H.S. Colour Chart published by The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England, and with nomenclature according to The International Lily Register, 2nd edition, of The Royal Horticultural Society.

This new variety of hybrid Asiatic lily most nearly resembles the variety "Twilight" (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,179), but has upright rather than side facing flowers, short pedicels, and a high bud count. Also, it has a broader tepalled flower form and has green rather than reddish green stems. I claim:
