Parentage information comes from the US Patent for INTerlien. The patent says this rose "combines the glossy foliage, pink flowers and long vase life of the female parent with the longer stems, flowers borne in clusters and vigor of the male parent." This rose has a vase life of from 7 to 9 days. The breeder's objective was to produce a new Floribunda that woudl be ideally suited for use as a cut flower spray rose.
Notes:
Jackson & Perkins Greenhouse Roses says Evelien makes beautiful pink sprays with excellent vase life.
