Abstract
A new and distinct variety of Hybrid Tea rose plant is provided which abundantly forms attractive double long lasting clear pink flowers that are striped with dark pink. The new variety is a whole plant mutation of the ‘Delstriro’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 13,086) which unlike the present variety forms clear red striped with dark red flowers. The growth habit is bushy. The vegetation is semi-vigorous to vigorous and good disease resistance is displayed when grown in a greenhouse. The new plant is well suited for forcing during cut flower production under greenhouse growing conditions.
