Definitions
- This carnation cultivar originated as a sport of Ocean Spray (P.P. 3299) and was discovered by us at our nursery in Soquel, Calif. The beautiful pink coloring of the flower led us to propagate this sport at our nursery by cuttings and observation of the resulting plants, their growth and blooming habits, and the longevity and fragrance of the blooms has caused us to begin production of this plant for the commercial market. Propagation of this plant is now being done by cuttings at Salinas, Calif., as well as at Soquel, Calif., and many generations of this plant have demonstrated that its distinctive characteristics hold true and appear to be firmly fixed.
- Branching habit Moderate side shoots.
- Foliage Abundant, usually 24 leaves per spray.
- Form Generally ovoid and pointed.
- Opening rate Moderate.
- Calyx Size -- 3.5 cm. long; 1.4 cm. wide.
- Sepals Shape -- generally oval with mucronate tip.
- Peduncle Erect and rigid.
- Shape High center when first opening and at maturity.
- Petalage Number of petals -- 32.
- Peduncle Flowering stem -- rigid and upright.
- Disease resistance Resistant to botrytis where that disease often occurs.
- Lasting quality 5 weeks on plant; 3 weeks as cut flower.
- Ovaries Ovoid in shape and segmented.
- This new variety of spray type carnation most nearly resembles its parent Ocean Spray differing particularly by the pink coloration of its flowers.

Description
This carnation cultivar originated as a sport of Ocean Spray (P.P. 3299) and was discovered by us at our nursery in Soquel, Calif. The lovely pink coloring of the flower led us to propagate this sport at our nursery by cuttings and observation of the resulting plants, their growth and blooming habits, and the longevity and fragrance of the blooms has caused us to begin production of this plant for the commercial market. Propagation of this plant is now being done by cuttings at Salinas, Calif., as well as at Soquel, Calif., and many generations of this plant have demonstrated that its distinctive characteristics hold true and appear to be firmly fixed.
Our new variety of carnation plant is illustrated by the accompanying full color photographic drawing which shows a spray of fully opened flowers and several stages of buds, the color rendition being as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to obtain by conventional and professional photographic procedures.
The following is a detailed description of our new carnation cultivar based upon observations made of plants grown under conventional greenhouse practices at Salinas, Calif., the color descriptions being according to the R.H.S. Colour Chart published by The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England, in collaboration with the British Colour Council.
