Abstract

A new and distinct variety of miniature rose plant characterized by a profusion of blooms that are near white with a soft pink center. The exhibition form blooms are held on long stems on a very strong upright plant.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of miniature rose plant which has been given the international variety recognition designation "Brilin", and is to be marketed in this country under the synonym "Linville".
2. Plants Related to the Invention
The plant of this invention was originated as a result of a planned breeding program which had as a seed parent an unnamed seedling which is unpatented and proprietary and which had, itself, resulted from the cross of my unnamed proprietary seedling with the commercial variety "Rise'N Shine", as pollen parent. Flowers of the seed parent of the plant of this application were variously pollinated with pollen from a number of sources. Seeds resulting from such crosses were massed, and caused to germinate. Plants resulting were allowed to develop and the progeny were observed in hope of attaining at least one valuable addition to roses of this market class by expressing desired traits which had not been previously seen. The plant of this application was one of the progeny of such efforts.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Among the new and novel characteristics which are possessed by this plant, singly and in combination, which distinguish it from its parents and all other plants of which I am aware are:
1. Well formed, off-white and blemish resistant blooms with a soft, pink center and exceptional form and substance.
2. Abundant blooms borne singly, and it clusters of up to 7, on long, strong stems.
3. A light, spicy fragrance.
4. An abundance of semi-glossy, medium green foliage which pleasingly contrasts with and highlights the blooms of soft creamy hues.
5. Higher than usual disease resistance to common rose diseases, with a higher than usual level of vigor, and growing to a height which is unusual for roses of this market class to produce a plant which attractively appoints the home garden while providing cut flowers of exhibition form and quality.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The single sheet of the accompanying drawing is a photograph which shows typical specimens of the flowers of the new variety in different stages of development as well as the coloration thereof as accurately as possible in color illustrations of this type.
