Abstract

A distinctive cultivar of miniature rose plant named Ruijef, characterized by its large dark red flowers; numerous flowers per spray and plant; freely branching plant habit; long shelf-life; and strong rooting habit.

Description

The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of the miniature rose class, botanically known as Rosa hybrida, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name Ruijef.
The new cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor in Hazerswoude, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program was to develop compact pot rose varieties with garden performance that can be asexually reproduced by cuttings. The new cultivar originated from a cross made by the inventor in 1991 of two unnamed proprietary seedlings. The cultivar Ruijef was discovered and selected by the inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross in a controlled environment in Hazerswoude, The Netherlands.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by cuttings taken at Hazerswoude, The Netherlands, has shown that the unique features of this new miniature rose plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of Ruijef. These characteristics in combination distinguish the new miniature rose plant as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Large dark red flowers.
2. Numerous flowers per spray and per plant.
3. Freely branching plant habit.
4. Long shelf-life.
5. Strong rooting habit.
The new miniature rose plant has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment such as temperature and light level, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate typical specimens of the vegetative growth and flowers of the new miniature rose plant, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type.
The first photograph comprises a top perspective view of a typical plant of the new miniature rose plant grown in Hazerswoude, The Netherlands.
The second photograph comprises details of the new miniature rose plant. In this photograph the top of a young shoot 1); a leaf with three leaflets (2); a leaf with five leaflets (3); a leaf with seven leaflets (4); a stem with prickles (5); a flower bud after sepals open (6); a flower bud after petals begin to unfurl (7); a flower one-third to one-half open (8); a flower fully open (9); a flower stem with sepals, stamens and pistils (10); a flower stem with sepals and pistils (11); a flower stem with pistils only (12); and a spray of seven flower buds (13) are shown. The flower color in both photographs appears lighter than the actual flower color due to light reflectance.
The following observations, measurements, values, and comparisons describe plants grown in Hazerswoude, The Netherlands, under glass covering with average day temperatures of 20° C., average night temperatures of 16 to 18° C., and an average light level of 2,000 J/cm2.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
