Abstract
A new geranium cultivar is distinguished by its compact plant, early flowering and delicate color balance from margin to center with an overall pastel pink appearance. The plant is strong, vigorous and stable and withstands heat. Flowers are retained while vegetation continues to grow.
Description
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Pelargonium hortorum which is a zonal geranium known by the varietal name Capri. The new varietey Capri (Oglevee No. 67, Denholm No. 5525) was discovered in a selective breeding program by Mr. Blair L. Winner. The new cultivar was derived from the selfing of the variety "Glacier Claret" (patent pending).
The principal difference between the new cultivar and "Glacier Claret" is one of flower color. The new cultivar is a salmon color whereas "Glacier Claret" has a red-purple flower color.
The new cultivar was discovered in January of 1983 at Denholm Seeds in Lompoc, Calif., was first asexually reproduced by cuttings by Denholm Seeds at Lompoc, Calif. and has been repeatedly asexually reproduced by cuttings at Oglevee Associates, Inc. in Connellsville, Pa. over a 36 month period. It has been trial and field tested at Connellsville, Pa. yearly since the spring of 1984. It has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive propagations.
The new cultivar when grown in a greenhouse in Connellsville, Pa. using full natural light, 60° F. night temperature, 68° F. day temperature and 71° F. vent temperature and grown in a soilless media and constant fertilizer of 275-300 parts per million nitrogen and potassium, has a response time from a rooted cutting to a flowering plant of six weeks.
The accompanying drawing illustrates the new cultivar, the color being as true as possible with color illustrations of this type.
The following detailed description sets forth the characteristics of the cultivar. The data which define these characteristics were collected from asexual reproductions carried out by Oglevee Associates, Inc. in Connellsville, Pa. The plant histories were taken on plants blossomed under natural light in a greenhouse and color readings were taken indoors under 200-220 foot candles of fluorescent cool white light. Color references are primarily to the R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London.
