The present invention constitutes a new and distinct variety of floribunda rose plant which originated from a controlled crossing between an unnamed seedling and an unnamed seedling. The two parents were crossed and the resulting seeds were planted in a controlled environment....The new rose may be distinguished from its seed parent, an unnamed seedling, created by the same inventors by the following combination of characteristics: 1. The parents of the unnamed seedling are `POULgav` Gavno and RUImired, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,770. 2. The unnamed seedling has bronze colored flowers ...The new variety may be distinguished from its pollen parent, an unnamed seedling created by the same inventors, by the following combination of characteristics: 1. The parents of the unnamed seedling are Crimson Midinette, RUImired, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,770 dated Jul. 22, 1986 and POULrouge, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,687 dated Nov. 12, 1996. 2. The unnamed seedling is a red miniature rose
`POULsail` was selected by the inventors as a single plant from the progeny of the hybridization in May, 1994.
