ABSTRACT:
Classification: The present invention relates to a new
Rosa hybrida
plant.
Variety denomination: The new plant has the varietal denomination ‘FRYcentury’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of Floribunda Rose. The varietal denomination of the new variety is ‘FRYcentury’. It has as its seed parent the variety known as Silver Jubilee and as its pollen parent the unpatented variety known as an unpatented, unnamed seedling bred from ‘FRYrelax’ (Pensioner's Voice)בCheshire Life’.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Among the features that distinguish the new variety from other presently available and known commercial rose cultivars are the following combination of characteristics: its multi-colored blossoms with perfect spiral form and its healthy, shiny dark green foliage. The plant is a bushy, upright growing and slightly spreading plant, suitable for outdoor garden decoration.
Asexual reproduction of the new variety by budding as performed in Wilsonville, Oreg., and Kern County, Calif. shows that the foregoing and other distinguishing characteristics come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations. ‘FRYcentury’ may be asexually propagated by cuttings, budding, grafting, layering or tissue culture.
COMPARISON WITH PARENTS
The new rose may be distinguished from its seed parent, ‘Silver Jubilee’ by the following combination of characteristics: ‘Silver Jubilee’ is a hybrid tea of small to medium size borne on short stems on a short densely foliage plant. The colors are a blend of medium and light pink with very little yellow. ‘FRYcentury’ is a blend of yellow and pink and comes on in clusters of flowers.
The new variety may be distinguished from its pollen parent, unnamed seedling bred from ‘FRYrelax’בCheshire Life’ by the following combination of characteristics: the unnamed seedling is a creamy pink hybrid tea with no yellow coloring.
The unnamed seedling's pollen parent, ‘Cheshire Life’, is an orange-vermilion hybrid tea. The unnamed seedling's seed parent, ‘FRYrelax’ is an orange-apricot floribunda.
