Abstract

A new variety of shrub rose plant distinguished by its tolerance of low winter temperatures, its resistance to foliar diseases such as Blackspot and Powdery Mildew, and its continuous production of large flowers of light red-purple coloration.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
This new rose plant originated as a seedling resulting from a cross of the seed parent Carefree Beauty (Bucbi) (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,225) with an unnamed pollen parent obtained by crossing The Yeoman (unpatented) with Country Dancer (unpatented). The new variety was discovered by me at Iowa State University Horticulture Greenhouses, Ames, Iowa, in 1976 and resulted from breeding efforts commenced by me in 1949 at that University. The new plant was selected for propagation because of its continuous and profuse production of large flowers of magenta hue and especially because of its ability to survive winter temperatures in Iowa as low as -35° F. without weather protection and its notable resistance to foliar diseases. Following its discovery, this plant has been asexually reproduced by me by bud-grafting at Ames, Iowa, and has been propagated through successive generations to test its retention of the characteristics first observed. Such propagation through successive generations has shown the distinctive characteristics of this new variety hold true from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
This new variety of rose plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which, in full color, shows face and three-quarter side views of opened flowers and several other stages of the bloom from a tight bud to a bud with sepals just cracked. The colors shown are as nearly true as can be reasonably expected to be reproduced by conventional photographic procedures.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW PLANT
The following is a description, in detail, of this new variety of hybrid rose plant with color designations according to The R.H.S. Colour Chart (RHSCC) published by The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England, in collaboration with The British Colour Council (BCC), with reference in some cases to the descriptive color designations adopted by the latter.

REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS
Stamens:
Anthers.--Numerous, with a length of about 0.4 to 0.6 cm. and in a circular arrangement.
Filaments.--The filaments have a length of about 1.2 to 1.4 cm. and a color of Dresden Yellow 5B (RHSCC).

The fruit is fertile and of ovoid shape with a color at maturity of Orange-Red 31A (RHSCC) tinged with Yellow-Green.
This rose plant resembles its seed parent Carefree Beauty (Bucbi) in its floral traits with flowers that resemble those of The Yeoman in form but of a color that is more pink. The plant is notably tolerant of cold winter temperatures without requiring extensive weather protection. Because of that trait and its resistance to foliar diseases such as Blackspot and Powdery Mildew, this plant lends itself for use either as a low-growing everblooming shrub or as a mass-effect low-maintenance bedding plant.
