`BENdiez` is a new and distinct variety of miniature rose plant that grows
two feet wide and tall with dark red flowers in proportion to the size of
the foliage. Blooms are borne primarily singly, are good as cut flowers
and ideal for exhibition. The color of the flowers fades very little,
even though the petals become marcescent, so the plant constantly has the
dark red flowers throughout the growing season. The dark green,
semi-glossy foliage offers above average disease resistance in all areas
of the mainland United States.
