PLANT VARIETIES JOURNAL 2000 VOL <strong>13</strong> NO. 1<br />

Choice of Comparators ‘Broadway’ was considered to be<br />

the closest comparator for its similarity in flower colour.<br />

The seed parent was excluded because of a shorter plant<br />

habit. The pollen parent ‘Aroyqueli’ syn Gold Medal was<br />

initially considered as a comparator but later was excluded<br />

because of the differences as stated above.<br />

Comparative Trial Comparator: ‘Broadway’. Location:<br />

Swane’s Nursery, Narromine, NSW in Nov 1999.<br />

Conditions: plant were budded on root stocks and raised in<br />

open beds. Trial Design: completely randomised.<br />

Measurements: from 10 plants taken at random.<br />

Application No: 1998/078 Accepted: 3 Sept 1998<br />

Applicant: Week’s Roses, Upland, California. USA.<br />

Agent: Swane Bros Pty Ltd, Narromine, NSW.<br />

Characteristics (Table 48, Figure 11) Plant: growth habit,<br />

medium, bushy, upright, floribunda. Young shoot:<br />

anthocyanin colouration weak, colour reddish brown.<br />

Thorns: very few prickles, many long prickles, concave.<br />

Leaf: size medium, colour medium green, cross section<br />

slight convex, upper surface dull to weak gloss, margin<br />

undulation weak. Terminal leaflet: length long, width broad,<br />

base shape obtuse. Flower pedicel: few hairs and prickles.<br />

Flower bud: profile broad ovate. Flower: double, size<br />

medium, view from above round, side profile flat, upper<br />

flat, lower flat, fragrance medium. Sepal: extensions weak.<br />

Petal: size medium, colour of middle and marginal zone<br />

inner side RHS 155D and RHS 63A, middle and marginal<br />

zone outer side RHS 155D and RHS 63B, basal spot<br />

present, size small, colour RHS 4A, petal margin reflexing<br />

weak, undulation of margin absent or very weak, stamen<br />

filament yellow. Flowering habit: remontant. (Note: all<br />

RHS chart numbers refer to 1995 edition.)<br />

Origin and Breeding Controlled pollination: seed parent<br />

‘Playboy’ x pollen parent ‘JACraw’ in a planned breeding<br />

program. The seed parent produces single flowers of an<br />

orange blend colouration. The pollen parent bears medium<br />

sized flowers with only slight fragrance. Selection criteria:<br />

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

made on the basis of unusual striped petal colouration.<br />

Propagation: vegetatively through many generations.<br />

Breeder: Thomas F. Carruth, Upland, California. USA.<br />

Choice of Comparator ‘Candy Stripe’ was considered to<br />
