ABSTRACT:

BOTANICAL/COMMERCIAL CLASSIFICATION
Miniature Rose Plant Named ‘Meidarin’.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new variety of
Rosa hybrida
Miniature rose plant was created by artificial pollination wherein two parents were crossed which previously had been studied in the hope that they would contribute the desired characteristics. The female parent (i.e., the seed parent) of the new variety was the product of the cross of the ‘Savamark’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No., 5,044) and the ‘Savabear’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,424). The male parent (i.e., the pollen parent) was the ‘Meicofum’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,997). The parentage of the new variety can be summarized as follows:
(‘Savamark’בSavabear’)בMeicofum’.
The seeds resulting from the above pollination were sown and small plants were obtained which were physically and biologically different from each other. Selective study resulted in the identification of a single plant of the new variety.
It was found that the new variety of Miniature rose plant of the present invention possesses the following combination of characteristics:
(a) Exhibits a bushy growth habit,
(b) Forms in abundance attractive double orange suffused with orange-red blossoms,
(c) Forms very dense medium green glossy foliage, and
(d) Is well suited for pot forcing.
The new variety well meets the needs of the horticultural industry. It is particularly well suited for pot forcing under greenhouse growing conditions to form a distinctive gift plant.
The new variety can be readily distinguished from its ancestors. More specifically, the ‘Savamark’ variety forms brilliant orange-red flowers, the ‘Savabear’ variety forms orange-brown flowers, and the ‘Meicofum’ variety is a Hybrid Tea with much larger flowers.
The new variety has been found to undergo asexual propagation in France by a number of routes, including budding, grafting, and cuttage. Asexual propagation by the above-mentioned methods as performed in the South of France has shown that the characteristics of the new variety are strictly transmissible from one generation to another.
The new variety has been named the ‘Meidarin’ variety.
