The new variety of Rosa hybrida Climbing rose plant was discovered during June 1999, at Le Cannet des Maures, Var, France, while growing among plants of the `Meitosier` variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,233). The new variety was found to display a distinctive blossom coloration unlike that of the `Meitosier` variety, and is believed to be a spontaneous mutation of unknown causation of such variety. The blossoms of the new variety exhibit an attractive yellow coloration unlike the light Mandarin Orange blossom coloration of the `Meitosier` variety.
