A new and distinct variety for Ground Cover Rose plant is provided which
forms in sprays attractive long-lasting red-purple blossoms which are
lacking in fragrance with yellow pollen and reproductive organs commonly
being visible at the center and which commonly display very good heat
resistance and color stability upon aging. The new variety exhibits a
dense, compact, and spreading growth habit. The foliage is green and very
glossy on the upper surface and contrasts well with the red-purple
blossom coloration. The surfaces of leaves commonly are somewhat curled
and partially closed. The blossom petals commonly detach cleanly upon
full maturity. The plant propagates well from cuttings and by budding.
Excellent resistance to Blackspot; Powdery Mildew, Downey Mildew, and
Rust are displayed, and the plant is particularly well suited for growing
as an ornamental ground cover in the landscape.
