Abstract

A Pelargonium cultivar particularly distinguished by its bright, rich red flower color and semi-double flowers is disclosed.

Description

Genus and species: Pelargonium×hortorum L.H. Bailey.
Variety denomination: ‘Amri Dered’.
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Pelargonium, botanically known as Pelargonium×hortorum L.H. Bailey, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Amri Dered’. The new cultivar was propagated from a seedling resulting from the cross of 8691-2, a dark red-flowered, unnamed, unpatented proprietary Pelargonium line, as the female parent, and ‘Rumba Fire’, a scarlet-flowered Pelargonium (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,489), as the male parent.
The new cultivar was created in 2000 in Gilroy, Calif. and has been asexually reproduced repeatedly by vegetative cuttings in Gilroy, Calif. over a four year period. It has also been trialed at Gilroy, Calif., Litchfield, Mich., and Andijk, The Netherlands. It has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive asexual propagations. ‘Amri Dered’ reproduces true to type through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
DESCRIPTION OF PHOTOGRAPH
This new geranium plant is illustrated by the accompanying photograph which shows blooms, buds, and foliage of the plant; the colors shown are as true as can be reasonably obtained by conventional photographic procedures. The photograph is of a 4 month old plant grown in a lexan-covered greenhouse with other zonal pelargonium culture.
FIG. 1. shows overall plant habit while the inset photograph show a closer view of the mature inflorescence.
 DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW CULTIVAR
The following detailed descriptions set forth the distinctive characteristics of ‘Amri Dered’. The data which defines these characteristics were collected from asexual reproductions carried out in Gilroy, Calif. The plant history was taken on seven-month-old plants grown in 1 gallon pots in a poly-covered greenhouse during the fall/winter season. The color readings were taken under natural light in the greenhouse in the late winter season. Color references are primarily to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London (R.H.S.) (2001). Texture description data were collected by viewing plant parts with a dissecting microscope.
