Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Ivy Geranium plant named ‘Oglger13067’, characterized by its compact, upright to outwardly spreading and mounded plant habit; freely branching habit; freely flowering habit; lavender-colored double flowers; and good garden performance.

Description

Botanical designation: Pelargonium peltatum.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Oglger13067’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Ivy Geranium, botanically known as Pelargonium peltatum, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Oglger13067’.
The new Ivy Geranium is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Lompoc, Calif. The objective of the breeding program is to create new compact Ivy Geranium cultivars with high temperature tolerance and attractive and unique flower coloration.
The new Ivy Geranium originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in February, 2002 in Lompoc, Calif. of a proprietary selection of Pelargonium peltatum identified as code number 1683-2, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with Pelargonium peltatum ‘Nicole’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,358, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Ivy Geranium was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant from within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in Connellsville, Pa. in March, 2003.
Asexual reproduction of the new Ivy Geranium by vegetative terminal cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Connellsville, Pa. since September, 2003, has shown that the unique features of this new Ivy Geranium are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new Ivy Geranium has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment and cultural practices such as temperature, daylength 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 ‘Oglger13067’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Oglger13067’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Ivy Geranium:
    • 1. Compact, upright to outwardly spreading and mounded plant habit.
    • 2. Freely branching habit.
    • 3. Freely flowering habit.
    • 4. Lavender-colored double flowers.
    • 5. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Ivy Geranium differ from plants of the female parent selection primarily in flower color as plants of the female parent selection have pale lavender-colored flowers. In addition, plants of the new Ivy Geranium are more high temperature tolerant than plants of the female parent selection.
Plants of the new Ivy Geranium differ from plants of the male parent, ‘Nicole’, primarily in flower color as plants of ‘Nicole’ have pink-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Ivy Geranium can be compared to plants of Pelargonium peltatum ‘Freelight Lav Two’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 13,230. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Connellsville, Pa., plants of the new Ivy Geranium differed from plants of ‘Freelight Lav Two’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Ivy Geranium were more compact than plants of ‘Freelight Lav Two’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Ivy Geranium flowered earlier than plants of ‘Freelight Lav Two’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Ivy 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 Ivy Geranium.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Oglger13067’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the top of the sheet is a close-up view of typical flowers of ‘Oglger13067’.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The aforementioned photographs and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown in Encinitas, Calif. in a plastic-covered greenhouse during the spring and under conditions which closely approximate Ivy Geranium commercial production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures averaged 24° C., night temperatures averaged 19° C. and light levels averaged 4,000 foot-candles. Plants were about 15 weeks from planting when the photographs and the description were taken. In the detailed description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
