Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Regal Geranium plant named ‘Oglger11010’, characterized by its upright, outwardly spreading and mounded plant habit; freely branching habit; freely flowering habit; early to mid-flowering habit; bright lilac and magenta-colored flowers; and good garden performance.

Description

Botanical designation: Pelargonium×domesticum.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Oglger11010’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Regal Geranium, botanically known as Pelargonium×domesticum, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Oglger11010’.
The new Regal 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 freely-branching and early-flowering Regal Geranium cultivars with attractive and unique flower coloration.
The new Regal Geranium originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in June, 2000 in Lompoc, Calif. of the Pelargonium×domesticum cultivar Prince, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,090, as the female, or seed, parent with the Pelargonium×domesticum cultivar Partisan, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The cultivar Oglger11010 was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant from within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Lompoc, Calif. in February, 2001.
Asexual reproduction of the new Regal Geranium by vegetative terminal cuttings in a controlled environment in Connellsville, Pa. since February, 2002, has shown that the unique features of this new Regal Geranium are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar Oglger11010 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 ‘Oglger11010’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Oglger11010’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Regal Geranium:
    • 1. Upright, outwardly spreading and mounded plant habit.
    • 2. Freely branching habit.
    • 3. Freely flowering habit.
    • 4. Early to mid-flowering habit.
    • 5. Bright lilac and magenta-colored flowers.
    • 6. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Regal Geranium differ primarily from plants of the female parent, the cultivar Prince, primarily in flower color as plants of the cultivar Prince have pink and white bi-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Regal Geranium differ primarily from plants of the male parent, the cultivar Partisan, primarily in flower color as plants of the cultivar Partisan have lilac-colored flowers. In addition, plants of the new Regal Geranium flower earlier than and are not as vigorous as plants of the cultivar Partisan.
Plants of the new Regal Geranium can be compared to plants of the Pelargonium×domesticum cultivar Elegance Lavender, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 17,779. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Connellsville, Pa., plants of the new Regal Geranium differed from plants of the cultivar Elegance Lavender in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Regal Geranium were more compact than plants of the cultivar Elegance Lavender.
    • 2. Plants of the new Regal Geranium and the cultivar Elegance Lavender differed in flower color as plants of the cultivar Elegance Lavender had lavender-colored flowers.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new Regal Geranium, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photograph may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Regal Geranium. The photograph comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Oglger11010’ grown in a container.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The aforementioned photograph and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown in Connellsville, Pa. in a glass-covered greenhouse during the summer and under conditions which closely approximate Regal Geranium commercial production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 21° C. to 32° C., night temperatures ranged from 17° C. to 21° C. and light levels ranged from 2,500 lux to 3,000 foot-candles. Plants were about 14 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, 2001 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
