Show the legal claimThe single numbered claim as granted — the legal text that defines what this patent covers.
The following is claimed: 1. A new and distinct variety of miniature rose plant of hardy, well branched, upright, spreading and compact habit, substantially as illustrated and described, characterized by medium sized blooms of light and medium yellow and flushed lightly on the outer edges with an orange-red that gives the appearance of being a pale apricot and apricot-pink as it blends with the yellows, and occasionally some flowers being somewhat darker shades of the same coloring or having a different petal count, both or either on the same plant at the same time, but never in the same spray and rarely on the same lateral; borne singly and in small sprays with a slight fragrance, and a plant with relatively few thorns; vigorous and spreading to 30 inches and growing to 2 feet tall at maturity; and easy to propagate from cuttings.
