During this period of time more than 90.000 hybrid individuals were obtained and checked concerning their ornamental value and an average of 2.62 % of selection efficiency was encountered. Hybrid combinations with the highest rates of successful selections are presented, as examples for two years of artificial pollination programs. The actual results of this extensive breeding work are represented by nine new rose varieties released in Romania between 1970–1994 (Foc de tabara, Luchian, Simfonia, Rosabunda, Romstar, Incandescent, Auriu de Cluj, Rosalinda and Vigorosa) which are destined to open-air growing either for cutflowers or as ornamentals in parks, gardens etc. The main growing characteristics of these new varieties are presented as well as their field resistance to black-spot, mildew and rust. The ornamental features of these varieties are also presented both in synthetic...
