Description

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING

(1) The accompanying color illustrations show as true as is reasonably possible to obtain in color photographs of this type, the typical characteristics of the buds, flowers, leaves, and stems, of ‘Poulren039’.

(2) Specifically illustrated in FIG. 1 of the drawings are juvenile bare stem exhibiting small and large prickles, juvenile leaves, mature stem and leaves, flower petals detached, and sepals attached to receptacle.

(3) Specifically illustrated in FIG. 2 of the drawings are open flowers viewed from above and the side, and sepals detached revealing reproductive flower parts. Plants shown are 2 years of age.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE VARIETY

(4) The following is a description of ‘Poulren039’, as observed in its growth in a field nursery in Linn County, Oreg. Observed plants are 2 years of age, and were grown on their own roots. Color references are made using The Royal Horticultural Society (London, England) Colour Chart, 2001, except where common terms of color are used.

(5) For a comparison, several physical characteristics of the rose variety ‘Poulren023’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 27,656 are now compared to ‘Poulren039’. The claimed plant has 145 petals with a flower diameter of 85 mm. The comparison variety has 25 to 30 petals with a flower diameter of 105 mm. In terms of general tonality of flower, the comparison variety is Red Group 49A and Red-Purple Group 62D. General flower tonality of the claimed plant is Red Group 55C and Red Group 52C.
