the seed parent is paler in color and has larger, deeply cupped petals with fewer petals compared to the flowers of `AUSraveloe`. The new rose may be distinguished from its pollen parent, by the following combination of characteristics: the pollen parent also has larger, deeply cupped flowers with a more apricot pink color, and is less disease resistant compared to `AUSraveloe`.
