The new variety of Rosa hybrida rose plant of the present invention was created at Greenfield, Wis., U.S.A., by artificial pollination wherein two parents were crossed which previously had been studied in the hope that they would contribute the desired characteristics. The cross was carried out during June 1999. The female parent (i.e., the seed parent) was the `Meioffic` variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,998). The male parent (i.e., the pollen parent) of the new variety was the `Wekroalt` variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,518). The `Meioffic` variety is being marketed under the JOHANN STRAUSS trademark, and the `Wekroalt` variety is being marketed under the FOURTH OF JULY trademark. The parentage of the new variety can be summarized as follows: `Meioffic`.times.`Wekroalt`.
