Rose plant-olyciso variety

Abstract

A new rose plant of the Floribunda Class is provided having attractive bicolor semi-double flowers. Such flowers are china pink on the inside and whitish-cream suffused with china rose on the outside. The rose plant is particularly suitable for forcing under greenhouse conditions to abundantly yield cut flowers. Under such growing conditions, commonly one flower is formed per stem; however, additional blossoms per stem may be produced particularly when grown out-of-doors and/or during the spring.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct vareity of Floribunda rose plant of vegetative reproduction substantially as illustrated and described by the fact that: (a) from the physical point of view, the rose plant with light green wood has bicolor semi-double flowers which are china pink on the inside and whitish-cream suffused with china rose on the outside; and   (b) from the biological point of view, the rose plant has vigorous vegetation, produces flowers in abundance and particularly is amenable to greenhouse forcing, is not particularly susceptible to diseases, and forms long lasting flowers comprising petals which detach cleanly.
