Abstract
A new and distinct variety of climbing shrub rose plant is provided which forms in abundance on a substantially continuous basis attractive clusters of fully double, deep pink blossoms having approximately 70–80 petals on average. The new variety is a spontaneous mutation of unknown causation of the ‘Meiviolin’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,892). The deep pink color can be readily distinguished from the white-pink color of the ‘Meiviolin’ variety. Vigorous vegetation is formed. The foliage is dense medium green with a semi-glossy finish. Excellent resistance to Black Spot and powdery mildew is displayed. Attractive dense ornamentation in the form of foliage and blossoms is made possible when the new variety is grown on a support.
