Rose plant seedling

Abstract

A red rose plant intended for greenhouse culture for the production of cut flowers, originated as a seedling of Red American Beauty (P.P. 1,982) crossed with Forever Yours (P.P. 2,443), the new plant being distinguished by its vigorous growth and free, continuous production of very large flowers having a brilliant red color which is an improvement over both parents. This new plant crops more uniformly than its seed parent and has a better flower form, it has the cropping characteristics of its pollen parent and has more shoots borne on slightly shorter stems.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct red rose cultivar substantially as herein shown and described, characterized by the brilliant red color of its very large blossoms, its vigorous habit of growth, its retention of the good cropping characteristics of its pollen parent, and its improved flower form over that of its seed parent.
