Abstract
A new variety of spray carnation having relatively small, bright red blooms of a crimson and rose red coloration which are produced profusely, during intermittent spring, midseason and fall blooming periods, in a spray formation carried on long, strong stems averaging a height of about 115 centimeters at eight months, with flower stems averaging about 69 centimeters in length and the plant having a vigorous, upright and rather rigid growth habit with an abundant production of foliage.
Description
This new carnation variety originated as a seedling resulting from our crossing of selected varieties from among our collection of carnation plants maintained at La Londe, Les Maures, France, for breeding purposes, the crossing from which this seedling resulted being done by us at La Londe with the object of producing a spray plant having nice color, good quality and a strong resistance to Fusarium oxysporum. This particular seedling was selected for propagation and test because of its tall, sturdy growth habit and its profuse production of pleasingly red flowers and our progressive propagation of this new plant, by cuttings, at La Londe clearly demonstrated that the novel characteristics that we had noted in the parent seedling would hold true from generation to generation and appeared to be firmly fixed.
Our new variety of spray carnation is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which shows, in full color, the upper portion of a typical spray stem bearing buds and blossoms in various stages from tight new buds to fully opened flowers, the colors shown being as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to obtain by conventional photographic procedures.
The following is a detailed description of our new carnation plant based upon observation of greenhouse grown plants made at La Londe and at Antibes, France, early in 1986, the color designations being according to The R.H.S. Colour Chart published by The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England.
