ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of rose plant of the floribunda class which was originated by me by crossing the variety ‘Iceberg’ (not patented), with the variety ‘MACrexy’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,713).
The primary objective of this breeding was to produce a new rose variety having the vigorous, upright plant habit, good disease resistance and ability to grow well on its own roots of the female parent, combined with the profuse flowering, many petaled flowers and glossy foliage of the male parent. The objective was substantially achieved, along with other desirable improvements, as evidenced by the following unique combination of characteristics that are outstanding in the new variety and that distinguish it from its parents, as well as from all other varieties of which I am aware:
1. Large, open clusters;
2. Constant blooming;
3. Large, vigorous, upright, well-branched plant;
4. Good disease resistance; and
5. Ability to grow well on its own roots.
Asexual reproduction of this new variety by softwood cuttings, as performed at Wasco, Calif., shows that the foregoing and all other characteristics and distinctions come true to form and are established and transmitter through succeeding propagations.
