A new and distinct variety for Ground Cover Rose plant is provided which forms in clusters substantially continuously throughout the season attractive long-lasting bright coral blossoms. The blossoms open on a reliable baisis and retain their attractiveness upon aging. The new variety exhibits an upright, dense, compact and spreading growth habit that renders it suitable for growing as attractive ornamentation in the landscape. The foilage is glossy and dark green and contrasts well with the bright coral blossoms. The petals detach cleanly when the blossoms mature. Excellent resistance to Blackspot, Powdery Mildew, and Rust is exhibited.
