The present invention constitutes a new and distinct variety of garden rose plant which originated from a controlled crossing between the female parent `Tanlilida`, a non-patented variety, and the male pollen parent, an unnamed seedling. The two parents were crossed during the summer of 1991 and the resulting seeds were planted in a controlled environment in Fredensborg, Denmark.
