I claim:

A new and distinct variety of rose plant characterized as to novelty by the strong fragrance of its flowers; the very long, strong stems bearin individual flowers of exhibition size on each stem; a combination of form, size and color in the flower unique in hybrid tea roses; the heavy, leathery, highly mildew-resistant foliage of moderately large size; and by its habit of vigorous growth to a tall plant with very little branching at the base, but with stems and flowers borne more or. less continuously at a progressively greater height during each growing season, substantially as shown and described.
