Abstract

A new and distinct variety of Hybrid Tea rose plant is provided which abundantly forms attractive double long-lasting blossoms which are Cream Yellow shaded with Buff Orange in coloration. The blossoms are very stable and maintain their coloration well throughout the blooming process and possess a slight fragrance. The plant exhibits an upright growth habit, forms vigorous vegetation, and is particularly well suited for cut flower production since it exhibits an excellent ability to be forced under greenhouse growing conditions. Additionally, the plant exhibits excellent disease resistance.
