By cross pollination of a Noack Rosen Seedling (unpatented in the United States), which has soft pink single blooms, with the variety known as `Bluhendes Barock` (variety: NOAbell) (Noack Rosen, 1997, unpatented in the United States), a floribunda rose with medium pink blooms, I have produced a new and improved rose variety .... The following observations were made on one and half-year-old budded specimens grown outdoors in Gutersloh, Germany, during the month of July 2002.
