Hybrid tea rose plant named `Meiloscor`

#The new variety of 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) of the new variety was the Meigrouge variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,383). The male parent (i.e., the pollen parent) was the Jelrocami variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,634). The parentage of the new variety can be summarized as follows:

#Meigrouge.times.Jelrocami.

#The seeds resulting from the above pollination were sown and 13 small plants were obtained which were physically and biologically different from each other. Selective study resulted in the identification of a single plant of the new variety.

#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 two years of age and were observed during February while budded on Rosa indica understock and growing in greenhouses at Cap d' Antibes, France.

#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 two year old plants made during February while budded on Rosa indica understock and growing in greenhouses at Cap d' Antibes, France. The coloration in common terms precedes reference to the chart.
