Abstract

A distinct cultivar of Carnation plant named ‘Yoder Lady’, characterized by its orange-colored flowers with occasional red-colored streaks and splashes; early and freely flowering habit with about 12 to 14 flowers per flowering stem; fragrant flowers; good postproduction longevity with flowers maintaining good substance and color for about ten days in an interior environment after shipping; and resistance to Fusarium oxysporum.

Description

Botanical classification: Dianthus caryophyllus cultivar Yoder Lady.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Carnation plant, botanically known as Dianthus caryophyllus and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Yoder Lady’.
The new Carnation is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Salinas, Calif., and Suba, Cundinamarca, Colombia, South America. The objective of the breeding program is to create new cut Carnation cultivars having long flowering stems, early flowering, attractive flower color, and good flower form and substance.
The new Carnation originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in 1994, in Salinas, Calif., of a proprietary selection of Carnation identified as code number 0110, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent, with the Carnation cultivar Jazz, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,121, as the male, or pollen, parent.
The cultivar Yoder Lady was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Suba, Cundinamarca, Colombia, South America in October, 1995. The selection of this plant was based on its flower color and good flower form and substance.
Asexual reproduction of the new Carnation by terminal cuttings in Suba, Cundinamarca, Colombia, South America since November, 1995, has shown that the unique features of this new Carnation are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar Yoder Lady has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature and light intensity without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Yoder Lady’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Yoder Lady’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Carnation:
1. Orange-colored flowers with occasional random orange red-colored streaks and splashes.
2. Early and freely flowering habit with about 12 to 14 flowers per flowering stem.
3. Fragrant flowers.
4. Good postproduction longevity with flowers maintaining good substance and color for about ten days in an interior environment after shipping.
5. Resistance to Fusarium oxysporum.
Plants of the new Carnation can be compared to plants of the female parent selection. In side-by side comparisons conducted in Suba, Cundinamarca, Colombia, South America, plants of the new Carnation and female parent selection differed primarily in flower coloration as plants of the female parent selection had pink-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Carnation can be compared to plants of the male parent, the cultivar Jazz. In side-by side comparisons conducted in Suba, Cundinamarca, Colombia, South America, plants of the new Carnation and the cultivar Jazz differed in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Carnation flowered one to two weeks earlier than plants of the cultivar Jazz.
2. Plants of the new Carnation and the cultivar Jazz differed in flower coloration as flowers of plants of the cultivar Jazz had more red-colored streaks and splashes than plants of the new Carnation.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Carnation, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description, which accurately describe the colors of the new Carnation.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering stem of ‘Yoder Lady’ grown as a spray-type cut Carnation.
The photograph on the second sheet comprises a close-up view of typical flowers of ‘Yoder Lady’.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Madrid, Cundinamarca, Colombia, South America under conditions which approximate commercial practice in a single-layer polyethylene-covered greenhouse. Four-week old rooted cuttings were planted in ground beds and pinched about three to four weeks later. During the production time, day temperatures ranged from 19 to 24° C.; night temperatures ranged from 4 to 12° C.; and light levels ranged from 3,000 to 5,000 foot-candles. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for six to ten typical flowering stems about 26 weeks after planting.
