This invention relates to a new variety of Floribunda rose. The plant is an upright bush rose for greenhouse cultivation. Its hardiness has not yet been tested. It is a sport which was discovered by applicant in May, 1977, as a bud mutation of a MERKO rose plant growing in a greenhouse in his nursery in Buitenkaag, Holland. Its vegatative type corresponds to the parent variety MERKO (known in the United States as MERCEDES and is described in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,724), but, whereas the MERKO rose is strong orange in color, the new variety (GERDO) is light pink.
