A new and distinct variety of Hybrid Tea intermediate rose plant is provided which abundantly forms attractive lemon yellow blossoms. Such blossoms commonly open slowly, are long-lasting and tend to well retain their coloration upon the passage of time. The blossoms commonly are borne in a regular display on erect stems wherein the stems commonly are somewhat uniform in length. The plant is well-suited for cut flower production in the greenhouse, and exhibits good disease resistance.
