Abstract
The cultivar is characterized by its light salmon color. Its strong growth habit and free flowering provides for superb cuttings and also for quick recovery following wet weather conditions. The blooms are heat tolerant.
Description
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Pelargonium×hortorum known by the varietal name Morning Mist (Oglevee No. 72, Bodger No. 10GM 153-1). The new variety was discovered in a selective breeding program by David Lemon at Bodger Seeds, Ltd., Lompoc, Calif. The new variety is a selection from the crossing of Sunbelt Coral (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,757) which exhibits a different flower color from the claimed cultivar and which has a slower finishing time than the claimed cultivar, with Schone Helena (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,374).
The new cultivar was first asexually reproduced by cuttings at Oglevee Ltd., Connellsville, Pa., and has been repeatedly asexually reproduced by cuttings at Oglevee Ltd. in Connellsville, Pa. It has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive propagations.
The new cultivar, when grown in a glass greenhouse in Connellsville, Pa., using full light, 60° fahrenheit night temperature, 72° fahrenheit day temperature, 72° fahrenheit vent temperature and grown in a soilless media of constant fertilizer 200 parts per million of nitrogen and potassium has a response time of six weeks from the rooted cutting to a flowering plant in a 10.0 cm pot.
The accompanying drawing illustrates the new cultivar, the color being as nearly true as possible with color illustrations of this type.
The following detailed description sets forth characteristics of the new cultivar. The data which defines each characteristic was collected from asexual reproductions carried out by Oglevee Ltd. in Connellsville, Pa. The plant histories were taken on rooted cuttings potted on Feb. 15, 1995 and flowered Apr. 1, 1995 under full light and greenhouse, and colorings were taken indoors under 200-220 foot candles of fluorescent cool white light using The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London.

Morning Mist is a new light salmon variety similar in color to the commercial variety Pink Camellia. Furthermore, unlike Pink Camellia (unpatented) which has a different flower color and which has a lower cutting yield and slowing rooting speed than Morning Mist, this variety exhibits a strong growth habit, branches freely and roots easily. It is heat tolerant in the outdoor garden, free flowering and recovers quickly following wet weather conditions. Given all these positive properties, this variety should please both the grower and the gardener.
