Hybrid tea rose plant named 'Meibderos'

#Rosa hybrida/Hybrid Tea Rose

#cv. ‘Meibderos’

#The new variety of Rosa hybrida Hybrid Tea rose plant 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., the seed parent) was the ‘Purple Splendour’ variety (non-patented in the United States). The male parent (i.e., the pollen parent) was the product of the cross of the ‘Johnago’ variety (non-patented in the United States) and the ‘Meikinosi’ variety (non-patented in the United States). The ‘Meikinosi’ variety sometimes is known as the ‘Tchin-Tchin’ variety. The parentage of the new variety can be summarized as follows:

#The accompanying photograph shows as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make the same, in a color illustration of this character, typical specimens of the plant parts of the new variety. The rose plants of the new variety were approximately 18 months of age and were observed during June while budded on Rosa froebelli understock and growing outdoors at Le Cannet des Maures, Var, France. Dimensions in centimeters are indicated at the bottom of the photograph.

#The chart used in the identification of the colors is that of The Royal Horticultural Society (R.H.S. Colour Chart). The description is based on the observation of eighteen month-old plants during June while budded on Rosa froebelli understock and growing outdoors at Le Cannet des Maures, Var, France.
