Description

VARIETAL DENOMINATION
‘Pacwei’.
BOTANICAL CLASSIFICATION
Pelargonium×hortorum (zonal geranium).
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of zonal geranium known by the varietal name ‘Pacwei’. The new variety is the result of in vitro mutation breeding in Dresden, Germany of the unpatented variety ‘PAC Blanca’. The new variety exhibits dark foliage like its parent, but differs in its flower color shade, flower size and umbel size. The new variety was first asexually reproduced by cuttings in Dresden, Germany in 2000. 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.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The accompanying photographic drawing illustrates the new variety, with the color being as nearly true as is possible with color illustrations of this type.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT
The following detailed description sets forth the characteristics of the new cultivar. The data which defines these characteristics were collected by asexual reproductions via cuttings carried out in Dresden, Germany. Plants described were about 9 months old. The color readings were taken indoors on plants grown in pots in greenhouses during Summer. Color references are primarily to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London.
