The new variety of Rosa hybrida Grandiflora rose plant was created during June of 2004 in Milwaukee, Wis., U.S.A., by artificial pollination wherein two parents were crossed which previously had been studied in the hope that they would contribute the desired characteristics. The female parent (i.e., the seed parent) was an unnamed breeder seedling (not patented). The male parent (i.e., the pollen parent) was a different unnamed breeder seedling (not patented).
