Description

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING

[0014] The accompanying color illustration shows 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 ‘Poulpah110’. Specifically illustrated in the drawing are open flowers viewed from above, flower bud before opening and while opening, flower petals detached revealing reproductive flower parts, sepals detached, mature and juvenile leaves and bare stem. Plants shown are 2 years of age.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE VARIETY

[0015] The following is a description of ‘Poulpah110’,as observed in its growth in a glass house located in Odense Denmark. Observed plants are 6 months of age, and were grown on their own roots in 24 cm containers. Color references are made using The Royal Horticultural Society (London, England) Colour Chart, 2001, except where common terms of color are used.

[0016] For a comparison, several physical characteristics of the rose variety ‘Poulpah070’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 27,641 are compared to the claimed plant ‘Poulpah110’. The general tonality of flower for the claimed plant is Open flowers are Yellow-Orange Group 23B with intonations of Orange-Red Group 31A. As the flower matures color changes to Yellow-Orange Group 18A and other colors of Orange Group 29A. The general tonality of the comparison variety ‘Poulpah070’ is Yellow-Orange Group 23C with other intonations of Orange Group 25C and Orange-Red Group 32B. The claimed plant has a flower diameter of 80 mm while the comparison variety has a flower diameter of 55 mm.
