The new variety of Rosa hybrida Bedding rose plant of the present invention was created 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., seed parent) of the new variety was the `Noawel` variety (non-patented in the United States). The male parent (i.e., pollen parent) was the `Meidanu` variety (non-patented in the United States). ... The illustrated rose plants of the new variety were approximately two years of age and were observed during September
