Rose plant

Abstract

A hybrid floribunda rose plant of the tall bush type particularly adapted for green house cultivation and having a vigorous growth habit and a tendency to bloom heavily, throughout most of the growing season. The blooms are of a two-tone deep coloration, the centers of the new blooms being of a deeper pink which accentuates their classic form. Cut flowers usually preserve their freshness for a vase life longer than average for roses of this class.

We claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of rose plant of the floribunda class, substantially as shown and described herein, and being particularly characterized by the vigor of its growth habit and the profusion of its blooms, said blooms being of a two-toned pink coloration which accentuates the classic form of the new blooms, said flowers having moderately thick heavy petals, and preserving their freshness over a vase life somewhat longer than average for roses of this class.
