Shrub rose plant named ‘Radcon’

Abstract

A new and distinct variety of landscape shrub rose plant is provided which forms in abundance on a substantially continuous basis attractive single blossoms that are pink in coloration. The new variety is a spontaneous mutation of unknown causation of the ‘Radrazz’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,836) that forms vivid red single blossoms. The vegetation is vigorous and the growth habit is compact and mounding. Attractive ornamental satiny green foliage is formed. Excellent disease resistance to blackspot is exhibited. The new variety is particularly well suited for growing as distinctive ornamentation in the landscape.

I claim:  
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of landscape shrub rose plant characterized by the following combination of characteristics: 
       (a) abundantly and substantially continuously forms attractive single blossoms that are pink in coloration unlike the vivid red blossoms of the ‘Radrazz’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,836),  
       (b) exhibits a compact and mounding growth habit,  
       (c) forms vigorous vegetation,  
       (d) forms attractive ornamental green foliage with a satiny finish, and  
       (e) exhibits excellent resistance to blackspot;  
       substantially as herein shown and described.
