Abstract
A new carnation cultivar particularly distinguished by the violet colored striation at the outer ends of the flower petals and a lightly pinkish background color of the petal body. These flowers are of medium size and are borne singly on long, strong stems and bloom profusely during the recurrent blooming seasons of Spring and Fall. This plant has a vigorous, upright growth habit and moderately abundant foliage.
Description
Our new carnation cultivar is the result of breeding efforts carried on by us at La Londe, Les Maures, France, since 1975, this new plant originating as a seedling produced from our crossing of selected and individually identified plants growing among our stock of plants maintained at La Londe for breeding purposes. This particular seedling was selected by us for propagation and test because of its very unusual flower coloration and the discovery plant was reproduced by us at La Londe, by means of cuttings. The result of that propagation effort appearing to be very favorable with respect to retention of the novel characteristics of the parent plant, we continued such propagation through several successive generations and established definitely that the novel and distinctive characteristics of the discovery plant are fully retained from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed.
Our new carnation variety is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which shows, in full color, a typical arrangement of 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.
The following is a detailed description of our new carnation discovery based upon observations of greenhouse grown plants made 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.
