Abstract
A new variety of hybrid grandiflora rose plant, of the hardy outdoor, tall bush type. This new rose cultivar is unique and distinguishable from existing rose cultivars by the following combination of characteristics: its deep yellow gold coloration lasts well throughout the life of the flower; its vigor and profusion of flowers provides an easy-to-grow, satisfying garden plant; its abundant large foliage attractively clothes the entire plant; its above average hardiness and disease resistance are especially unique among other yellow roses; its true grandiflora habit is unusual among yellow roses; its profusion of strong-stemmed flowers lends the variety well to the production of long-stemmed bouquets cut from the garden; its classically spiraled flower form is very consistent in a wide climatic range; its abundant production of basal canes lends to the overall attractive bushy habit; its nearly continual production of flowers throughout the growing season.
