Abstract
A new and distinct variety of Hybrid Tea rose plant is provided which abundantly forms attractive double pink blossoms. The blossoms are rose bengal on the upper surface and rhodamine pink on the under surface, and may vary to the darker tones according to the stage of the growing season. Such blossoms are long lasting when cut and placed in a vase. The plant exhibits an upright growth habit, vigorous vegetation, and is well suited for cut flower production when grown in a greenhouse. The foliage has an attractive bright dark green appearance which serves to well complement the blossom coloration. Additionally, the plant exhibits very good disease resistance.
