Abstract
A new and distinct early flowering regal geranium plant with white petals having a blotch of red-purple in the center and red-purple veining above medium green foliage.
Description
Pelargonium×domesticum (regal geranium).
‘Jewel’.
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Pelargonium×domesticum known by the varietal name ‘Jewel’. The new variety was discovered in a selected breeding program in Lompoc, Calif. The new variety is a selection from the cross of unpatented proprietary breed variety Seedling Purple Bicolor #607, the female parent and ‘Lois’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,000), the male parent. The new variety is more compact than ‘Lois’. The new variety was first asexually reproduced by cuttings in Connellsville, Pa. The new variety has been trial and field tested and has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics and remain true to type through successive propagations.
The cultivar, when grown in a glass greenhouse in Connellsville, Pa. using natural light and temperatures of 60° F. night and 68° F. day, has a response time of 13 weeks from a rooted cutting to flowering in a 6 inch pot. The response time was determined on plants grown in soilless media employing constant fertilizer 150-200 parts per million of nitrogen and potassium in full light.
The accompanying photographic drawing illustrates the new variety, with the color being as nearly true as is possible with color illustrations of this type.
The following detailed description sets forth the characteristics of the new cultivar at 10 weeks grown from a rotted cutting. The data which defines these characteristics were collected by asexual reproductions carried out by Oglevee, Ltd. in Connellsville, Pa. The color readings were taken on a plant under 200-220 foot candles of fluorescent cool white light. Color references are primarily to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London.
