Abstract

A new spray carnation variety particularly distinguished by its very light chartreuse yellow blossoms, the petal edges of which are predominately edged with cardinal red. These blossoms are borne on straight, rather rigid peduncles branching from a strong, upright stem having abundant foliage and a vigorous, upright growth habit. This variety is also rather resistant to Fusarium oxysporum.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
Our new spray carnation is the result of breeding efforts carried on by us at La Londe, Les Maures, France, since 1975 with the object of developing a new variety having nice color and good quality of flower stem and plant growth habit, and which would be resistant to Fusarium oxysporum. This new plant originated as a seedling produced by our crossing of selected and individually identified plants growing among a stock of spray carnations maintained at La Londe for breeding purposes and this particular seedling was selected by us for propagation and test because of its very unusual distinctive flower coloration. This discovery plant was reproduced by us at La Londe, by means of cuttings, with a very favorable result with respect to retention of the novel characteristics of the parent plant. This caused us to continue asexual propagation through several successive generations and over a period of years, which definitely determined that the novel and distinctive characteristics of the discovery plant are fully retained from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
Our new spray carnation is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which shows, in full color, the spray portion of a typical flowering stem with buds and flowers in various stages of opening, the colors shown being as nearly true to those specified herein as is reasonably possible to obtain by conventional photographic procedures.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW PLANT
The following is a detailed description of our new spray carnation discovery based upon observations of greenhouse grown plants at La Londe, France, in the Spring of 1983, the color designations being specified according to The R.H.S. Colour Chart published by The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England.
