In 1999, one line was selected based on the flower color, leaf shape, flower stalk, and vigorous growth. Evaluation and selection trials were conducted from 2000 to 2004. 'Pink Glory' has a light pink sepal (RHS, RPN66D), red lip (R52B) and a leaf length of 87.5 cm. The average number of flowers on each peduncle was 20.5 and the flower diameter was 8.6 cm. The general impression of petals and sepals showed some incurved and some spreading. 'Pink Glory' has a vigorous growth character and a rounded flower shape. It has an adequate peduncle height (66.5 cm) compared to leaf length (87.5 cm) and starts to bloom in late January under optimal cultural conditions.
