BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention comprises a new and distinct variety of Pelargonium, botanically known as Pelargonium zonale and hereinafter referred to by the variety name ‘KLEPZ17400’. ‘KLEPZ17400’ originated from a hand-pollination in July 2010 in Stuttgart, Germany between the female Pelargonium variety ‘KLEPZ08220’, also commercially known as MOONLIGHT ‘Fredo’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,067) and the male Pelargonium variety ‘KLEPZ09251’, also commercially known as MOONLIGHT ‘Loki’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 22,082).
Seeds from the hand-pollination were obtained. The seeds were sown and plants were grown for evaluation. A single plant was selected in June 2011 and subsequently named ‘KLEPZ17400’. In September 2011 ‘KLEPZ17400’ was first vegetatively propagated by vegetative cuttings. ‘KLEPZ17400’ was found to reproduce true to type in successive generations of asexual propagation via vegetative cuttings in Stuttgart, Germany.
SUMMARY
The following are the most outstanding and distinguishing characteristics of this new variety when grown under normal horticultural practices in Stuttgart, Germany.
    • 1. Bright salmon-colored flowers with a lighter salmon-colored border; and
    • 2. A bushy, round, and upright habit.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
This new Pelargonium plant is illustrated by the accompanying photograph which shows an overall view of the plant. The photograph is of an approximately 8 to 9-week-old plant grown in Stuttgart, Germany under greenhouse conditions in May 2015.
The colors shown are as true as can be reasonably obtained by conventional photographic procedures.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW VARIETY
The following detailed descriptions set forth the distinctive characteristics of ‘KLEPZ17400’. The data which define these characteristics were collected from asexual reproductions carried out in Stuttgart, Germany. Data was collected on 3-month-old plants in Stuttgart, Germany under greenhouse conditions in April 2018. Color references are to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London (R.H.S.), 5th edition (2007).
