Abstract

A new and distinct ivy geranium plant with distinctive red colored flowers above emerald green foliage. The new variety has excellent heat tolerance and flowers that do not burn in bright sunlight.

Description

Botanical classification: Pelargonium×peltatum (ivy geranium).
Varietal denomination: ‘Global Red’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Pelargonium×peltatum known by the varietal name ‘Global Red’. The new variety was discovered in a selected breeding program in Lompoc, Calif. as Breeder No. 6DG3595-1. The new variety is a result of cross breeding of ‘Nicole’ (female) (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,358) and ‘Global Ruby Red’ (male) (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,600). The new variety exhibits similar plant type to both parents. The flower color is redder than ‘Nicole’ (pink) and is a lighter color than ‘Global Ruby Red’. The new variety was first asexually reproduced by cuttings in Connellsville, Pa. The new variety has been trial and field tested at Connellsville 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 12 weeks from a rooted cutting to flowering in a 10 inch pot. The response time was determined on plants grown in soilless media employing constant fertilizer 200-250 parts per million of nitrogen and potassium in full light. Three cuttings planted in a pot and pinched at four weeks produce a finished hanging basket.
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 carried out by Oglevee, Ltd. in Connellsville, Pa. Plants were about 12 weeks old when described. The color readings were taken on a plant under 65-85 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.
