colouration (RHS 14B-C). Selection criteria: seedlings<br />

from the cross were grown and selection was made on the<br />

basis of the following selection criteria: unusual fresh<br />

flower colouration, long stems and fruity fragrance.<br />

Propagation: vegetatively through many generations.<br />
