Abstract
A distinct cultivar of Geranium plant named ‘New Dimension’, characterized by its upright, outwardly spreading and uniform plant habit; freely flowering habit; and light violet-colored flowers.
Description
Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Geranium pratense cultivar New Dimension.
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Geranium plant, botanically known as Geranium pratense, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name New Dimension.
The new Geranium is a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of the Geranium pratense cultivar Victor Reiter, not patented. The new Geranium was discovered by the Inventor in May, 1999 in a controlled environment in Vinhega, The Netherlands. The new Geranium was selected on the basis of its numerous uniquely colored flowers.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by micropropagation in a laboratory in Zandvoort, The Netherlands has shown that the unique features of this new Geranium are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the cultivar New Dimension have not been observed under all possible environmental and cultural 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 ‘New Dimension’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘New Dimension’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
-
- 1. Upright, outwardly spreading and uniform plant habit.
- 2. Freely flowering habit.
- 3. Light violet-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Geranium are most similar to plants of the parent, the cultivar Victor Reiter, however plants of the new Geranium differ from plants of the cultivar Victor Reiter in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Geranium are more uniform in plant shape than plants of the cultivar Victor Reiter.
- 2. Plants of the new Geranium are more freely flowering than plants of the cultivar Victor Reiter.
- 3. Plants of the new Geranium and the cultivar Victor Reiter differ in flower color.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Geranium, 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 Geranium.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical one-year old flowering plant of ‘New Dimension’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the top of the second sheet is a close-up view of a typical open flower of ‘New Dimension’.
The photograph at the bottom of the second sheet is a close-up view of the upper surface of a typical leaf of ‘New Dimension’.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. Plants used for the aforementioned photographs and following description were about one year old and grown under outdoor field conditions which closely approximate commercial production conditions in Boskoop, The Netherlands. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 14 to 27° C. and night temperatures ranged from 4 to 16° C. The photographs and description were taken in July, 2002.
