A miniature rose variety having a mature plant of only 2 feet in height; one-half inch long yellow buds opening to two inch diameter blooms; medium-small size foliage; and a mild, daisy-like fragrance.

This present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of rose plant 
named Jacsun of the Miniature class which was originated by me by crossing 
the variety Spanish Sun, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,809, with the variety 
Calgold, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,230. 
The primary objective of this breeding was to produce a new rose variety of 
the Miniature class producing pure yellow blooms on a compact free 
blooming plant, relatively resistant to mildew. This objective was 
substantially achieved along with other desirable improvements as 
evidenced by the following unique combination of characteristics which are 
outstanding in the new variety and which distinguish it from its parents 
as well as from all other varieties of which I am aware: 
1. A plant growing to only 2 feet in height. 
2. Yellow buds only approximately 1/2 inch long opening to yellow blooms 2 
inches in diameter. 
3. Medium size to small foliage. 
4. Good resistance to rose powdery mildew. 
5. A mild, daisy-like, fragrance. 
Asexual reproduction of this new variety by rooting cuttings, as performed 
at Wasco, Calif., shows that the foregoing characteristics and 
distinctions come true to form and are established and transmitted through 
succeeding propagations.
