Abstract

A distinctive carnation cultivar particularly distinguished by its medium sized flowers of phlox pink coloration, which are borne on long, erect and rigid stems and which bloom profusely during the recurrent blooming seasons of Spring and Fall. This plant has a vigorous, upright growth habit with moderately abundant foliage and a height averaging about 120 cm. at eight months.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
This new carnation cultivar is the result of breeding efforts carried on by us at La Londe, Les Maures, France, since 1978, and this new plant originated as a seedling produced by our crossing of selected and individually identified plants chosen from among our collection of exceptional carnation plants maintained at La Londe for breeding purposes. This particular seedling was selected by us for propagation and test because of its very lovely pink coloration and its apparently favorable growth habit. This discovery plant was reproduced by us at La Londe by means of cuttings of the parent and the plants developed from these cuttings 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 determined that the novel and distinctive characteristics of the discovery plant were fully retained from generation to generation and appeared to be firmly fixed.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
Our new carnation variety is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which shows, in full color, a typical arrangement of buds and flowers in several 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 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 at London, England.
