Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a scarlet red geranium species of the cultivar Evka, which can be easily distinguished from the known varieties by their very low growth, early flowering and persistent inflorescence of red, many small, simple flowers. 5

The Evka geranium of the present invention was bred from the plant of the genus Vilié de Paris (Pelargonium-Peltatum) by induction of mutants and by selection of individuals. It can be reproduced in the conventional way by cuttings. 10
