The Plant Patent Act granted to anyone who discovered or hybridized a new plant the exclusive right to determine for seventeen years who would propagate and sell it. The first plant in the world to be patented under this law was an American climbing rose, 'New Dawn', introduced by Henry Dreer in 1930.
