187C), spot at base of inner side small to medium, pale
yellow (ca. RHS 4D), colour of middle and marginal zones
of outer side dark purple red (ca. RHS 185B), spot at base
of outer side small pale yellow (ca. RHS 4D), reflexing of
margin absent or very weak, undulation of margin medium;
outer stamen, predominant colour of filament yellow; seed
vessel size (at petal fall) medium; hip, shape of longest
section pitcher shaped; flowering habit, almost
continuous.(Note: data in parenthesis are from local
observations and measurements. All RHS chart numbers

Origin and Breeding Spontaneous mutation: ‘Tanadac’ at
applicant’s property in Uetersen, Germany. ‘Tanadac’ is a
variety bred by the same breeder. Petals and buds were
darker and brighter in the new variety ‘Tanadeepdac’
compared to the parental variety ‘Tanadac’ (RHS 53C).
Selection criteria: flower colour, stem length, vase life.
Propagation: vegetative over several generations. Breeder:
Hans J Evers, Uetersen, Germany.
Choice of Comparators The qualified person considers
‘Tankalcig’ A is the closest variety of common knowledge in
Australia. It differs from ‘Tanadeepdac’ having darker
purple brown petals (RHS 183B) and the basal spot is white
(RHS 155C).
Comparative Trials Description based on official data
provided by Bundessortenamt, Hannover, Germany. Key
characteristics confirmed by local observations and
measurements by the qualified person. Location: Catherine
Field, NSW, Autumn 1999. Condition: plants grown under
cover on raised beds for commercial production of cut
flowers. Measurements: random sampling from separate
plants.

colour of middle zone of outer side pink (ca. RHS 49A),
colour of marginal zone of outer side pink (ca. RHS 49A),
spot at base of outer side absent (a small basal spot of RHS
4B is present on the outer side according to local
observation), reflexing of margin medium to strong;
undulation of margin strong; predominant colour of
filament yellow; seed vessel size (at petal fall) large; hip
shape of longest section funnel-shaped; flowering habit
almost continuous. (Note: data in parenthesis are from local
observations and measurements. All RHS chart numbers

Origin and Breeding Controlled pollination: unnamed
seedling salmon hybrid tea rose x unnamed seedling pink
hybrid tea rose in a planned breeding program at applicant’s
property in Utersen, Germany. Both parents are producer
lines in breeder’s private collection. Selection criteria:
flower colour, stem length, vase life. Propagation:
vegetative over several generations. Breeder: Hans J Evers,
Uetersen, Germany.
Choice of Comparators ‘Tanrikas’ was initially considered
as a comparator, however it was excluded because it has
thinner stems and fewer smaller petals. The qualified person
considered ‘Taniffest’ A is the closest variety of common
knowledge in Australia. It differs from ‘Taniliram’ in having
slightly different pink petals (RHS 50D-49A), smaller
terminal leaflets and smaller flowers and petals.
Comparative Trials Description based on official data
provided by EU Community Plant Variety Office,
Wageningen NL. Key characteristics confirmed by local
observations and measurements by the qualified person.
Location: Catherine Field, NSW Autumn 1999. Condition:
plants grown under cover on raised beds for commercial
