Abstract

A new and distinct variety of miniature rose plant characterized by (1) distinctive yellow-orange blooms and buds borne singly, but prolifically, on (2) a vigorous, compact plant with abundant green foliage.

Description

The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of rose plant of the miniature rose class, which was originated by my crossing as seed parent the miniature rose known as "Rise N Shine", (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,231) and the floribunda rose known in the United States as "Patricia," (Korpatri).
Among the novel characteristics possessed by this new variety which distinguish it from its parents and all other varieties of which I am aware are: (1) prolific blooms of yellow-orange, (2) blooms borne singly and very seldom clustered, (3) a soft fruity fragrance, (4) a well proportioned plant which is vigorous and shows off its blooms well against its green foliage, and (5) a plant which grows well both in the greenhouse and outdoors, is good for growing in pots, and provides excellent garden decoration as well as cut flowers.
The present variety of miniature rose was originated by me in Bergen County, N.J. Carefully controlled conditions and asexual reproduction by cuttings of the new variety as performed by me in Bergen County, N.J. show that the foregoing and other distinguishing characteristics come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations.
The accompanying drawing shows typical specimens of the vegetative growth and flowers of the new variety in different stages of development and as depicted in color as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make the same in a color illustration of this character.
The following is a detailed description of my new rose variety, with color terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart (RHSCC) except where common dictionary terms of color definition are employed.
