Abstract
A new variety of carnation particularly distinguished by its generally orange colored flowers, the petals of which are lightly streaked with a deep red, the flowers being of medium size and borne on erect and rigid but rather brittle stems of medium length. The blooms are produced abundantly during the blooming periods of Spring and Fall and this plant has a vigorous and upright growth habit with moderately abundant foliage and very few branches.
Description
This new carnation variety was developed by us during the course of breeding efforts carried on at La Londe, Les Maures, France, since 1977 with the object of producing new varieties having nice color, good quality of flower production and stem, and good growth habits. Our new plant originated as a seedling resulting from our cross of Stock Plants 75 J 12 and 70 R 5, both unnamed and unpatented, and this new plant was selected by us from the seedlings produced by that crossing because it appeared to have good character of flower color and growth habit that would be advantageous in the cut flower market. We asexually reproduced the discovery plant at La Londe, by means of cuttings, and because the first reproduction of the parent plant exhibited the novel and desirable characteristics of the discovery plant, we carried on the propagation of this new variety through several successive generations at La Londe and thereby determined that the distinctive and advantageous characteristics of the parent plant were fully retained from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed.
Our new variety of carnation plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which shows, in full color, a typical arrangement of buds, partially opened flowers and full blooms, the colors depicted being as nearly true to those herein specified as it is reaonably possible to obtain by conventional photographic procedures.
The following is a detailed description of our new carnation cultivar based upon observations of greenhouse grown plants made at La Londe, France, in the Spring of 1983, the color designations specified herein being according to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England.
