Abstract

A new variety of carnation plant producing white picotee red flowers.

Description

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of carnation plant which is the result of a cross of the variety `Koreno` as seed parent and `CFPC Twilight` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,514) as pollen parent. The varietal denomination of this new carnation is `CFPC Halo`.
Among the novel combination of characteristics possessed by the new variety which distinguishes it are superior resistance to F. oxysporum, and F. graminearum and white picotee red flowers. Among the differences of the new variety from its parents are flower coloration since `CFPC Halo` produces white picotee red flowers whereas `Koreno` flowers are yellow and `CFPC Twilight` produces purple flowers.
Asexual reproduction by propagation by side shoot cuttings of the new variety as performed in Salinas, Calif., shows that the foregoing and other distinguishing characteristics come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATION
The accompanying illustration shows typical specimens of the flowers and foliage of the new variety depicted in color as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make the same in a color illustration of this character.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW VARIETY
The following is a detailed description of my new variety, with color terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart (R.H.S.C.C.). The terminology used in color description herein refers to plate numbers in the aforementioned color chart. Phenotypic expression may vary depending upon varying environmental, seasonal and cultural conditions.
The information provided herein is based on observations of plants grown inside commercial greenhouses at Salinas, Calif. The height of the plant and flower and foliage size are established as an average using standard commercial cultural practices. Where terms such as average, normal, ordinary, etc., are used, the characteristics so described are not considered distinguishing.
