the chart used in the identification of the colors is that of the royal horticultural society ( r . h . s . colour chart ). the terminology which precedes reference to the chart has been added in some instances to indicate the corresponding colors in more common terms . the description is based on the observation of nine months old specimens of the new variety which were observed during march while growing on their own roots in greenhouses at lecannet des maures , var , france . height .— approximately 20 to 25 cm . on average at the end of the growing season . width .— approximately 30 to 35 cm . on average at the end of the growing season . habit .— bushy . color .— young stems : near green group 143a with anthocyanin coloration near greyed - orange group 176c . adult wood : near yellow - green group 146c . texture .— young stems : smooth . adult wood : smooth . thorns .— size : medium , and approximately 4 mm . in length on average . quantity : very sparse as illustrated . color : immature thorns are pale green , near yellow - green group 145c suffused with greyed - red group 182d , and mature thorns are near yellow - green group 145c and only slightly suffused with greyed - red group 182d . configuration : fairly straight . size .— approximately 8 cm . in length on average , and approximately 4 . 5 cm . in width on average . petioles .— upper surface : non - glandular , and near green group 137a with light anthocyanin coloration near greyed - orange group 176a . under surface : pale green with numerous small prickles . length : approximately 4 cm on average . rachis .— possesses a smooth surface texture . stipules .— adnate , pectinate , near green group 137c in coloration , approximately 6 mm . in length and approximately 2 mm . in width on average . leaflets .— number : 3 , 5 ( most often ), and 7 . shape : with an acute tip and an obtuse base ( as illustrated ). size : the terminal leaflets are commonly approximately 3 to 3 . 2 cm . in length on average and approximately 2 cm . in width on average . texture : smooth on the upper surface and bear prickles on the under surface of the leaf axil . serration : minute and regular . general appearance : very dense , dark green and semi - glossy . color ( young foliage ): upper surface : near green group 137b . under surface : near green group 137c . color ( adult foliage ): upper surface : dark green near green group 137a . under surface : near green group 137d . number of flowers .— commonly approximately 2 to 5 per stem . peduncle .— short , without prickles , near green group 137c with anthocyanin coloration near greyed - orange group 176a , and the length commonly is approximately 4 to 4 . 5 cm . on average . sepals .— upper surface : tomentose , and near green group 138b . under surface : glabrous and near green group 138a . size : commonly approximately 2 . 5 cm . in length , and with extensions . buds .— shape : conical . size : medium for class , and approximately 1 . 5 cm . in length and approximately 1 cm . in diameter . flower .— form : double and cup - shaped . diameter : approximately 4 . 5 to 5 cm . on average when fully open . color ( when opening begins ): upper surface : near yellow group 12a . under surface : near yellow group 12a . color ( when blooming ): upper surface : near yellow group 12a . under surface : near yellow group 12a . color ( at end of opening ): upper surface : near yellow group 12a and 12b . under surface : near yellow group 12a and 12b . petal form : with reflexed edges . petal shape : generally oval . petal number : commonly approximately 43 to 45 on average . petal size : the external petals commonly are approximately 2 cm . in length and approximately 2 cm . in width . petal apex : pointed . petal base : wedge - shaped . petal texture : physically moderately firm . petaloids : none observed to date . basal spot on petals : none observed to date . fragrance : none . anthers : yellow , near yellow group 12b . stamen number : approximately 68 on average . filaments : approximately 0 . 4 cm . in length , and yellow , near yellow group 12b , in coloration . pistil number : approximately 57 on average . petal configuration : wedge - shaped . pistil color : the stigma and style near yellow - green group 145a and 145b . stigmas : near yellow - green group 145a and 145b . styles : approximately 0 . 3 cm . in length on average , and near yellow - green group 145a and 145b in coloration . receptacle : smooth surface , medium green , near green group 138a , approximately 0 . 8 cm . in length and approximately 0 . 5 to 0 . 6 cm . in width on average , and in longitudinal section in the shape of a funnel . lasting quality : approximately 10 days on average on the plant . petal drop : good , the petals detach well . vegetation .— strong . blooming .— very abundant . resistance to diseases .— good under greenhouse growing conditions with respect to powdery mildew . propensity to form hips .— none observed .
a new and distinct variety of rose plant of the miniature class is provided which abundantly forms attractive double yellow blossoms of good color stability . the growth habit is low compact and bushy . decorative dense dark green semi - glossy foliage is formed that contrasts nicely with the yellow blossoms .
