Abstract

A new geranium cultivar distinguished by its sturdy, round and long lasting flower clusters standing on 14 cm. long, light brown stalks, each containing about sixty-five florets of medium size and salmon coloration, each floret having seven or eight, wide, regularly imbricated petals forming a closed cap and having an overall salmon coloration whereby the flower cluster provides a solid bright pink presentation; by its bushy, compact growth habit with good strength and a medium growth rate; and by its abundant, profusely produced foliage, of relatively small leaves, which stands about 20 cm. above the soil.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
This new geranium plant originated as a seedling of the geranium variety `Fledermaus` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,368) growing in my nursery at Stuttgart, West Germany, and randomly pollinated with the object of seed collection, my new variety of geranium being selected from a group of plants grown from seeds of the said seed parent. This selected plant as asexually reproduced by me and under my direction at Stuttgart by means of cuttings, with such favorable results that continued propagation by cuttings was carried on at Stuttgart through several successive generations, which demonstrated that the novel and desirable characteristics would hold true from generation to generation and appeared to be firmly fixed. This new variety is now being grown for commercial purposes at my nursery at Stuttgart, West Germany.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
This new geranium cultivar is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing, which shows in full color a typical flower cluster and the adjacent foliage, the colors shown being as nearly true to those herein specified as is reasonably possible to obtain by conventional, professional photographic procedures.
