Abstract

This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of miniature rose plant primarly identified by small yellow buds and flowers which are abundantly produced on a much branched compact plant.

The following is claimed: 
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of miniature rose plant of hardy, dwarf, bushy, upright to spreading, much branched habit, substantially as illustrated and described, characterized by buds and flowers which are generally of a clear yellow color, with buds and flowers being similar in shape to Rise N'Shine (miniature--U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,231) but smaller in size and with less petals; and further characterized by a plant similar to Cinderella (miniature--U.S. Plant Pat. No. 1,051--expired) which is vigorous and compact, the shoots and branches having short internodes, said plant being easy to propagate from cuttings and having an abundance of semi-glossy to matt foliage, with flowers borne singly or several to the stem in loose clusters.
