Abstract

A new carnation cultivar particularly distinguished by the uniform light coloration of its very large, double flowers which have exceptional endurance as cut flowers and excellent suitability for shipment, the plant itself being particularly well suited to commercial greenhouse cultivation for the production of cut flowers.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
This carnation cultivar originated as a sport of `Chinera` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,767) being grown at my nursery at Sanremo Italy, for commercial purposes, this new variety being discovered by me during the course of my regular inspection in 1987 of my plants being grown for commercial purposes. It was a somewhat deeper light pink coloration of this sport compared with its parent that caught my attention and accordingly this sport was propagated by means of cuttings through several successive generations to determine that its novel characteristics would hold true from generation to generation. It was thus found that the novel characteristics appeared to be firmly fixed and its homogeneity was assured.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
My new carnation cultivar is illustrated by the accompanying full color photographic drawing, which shows the inflorescence of a fully grown plant, the view including buds in several stages of development, as well as a flower in full bloom and specimens of the flower petals, the color shown being as nearly true to that herein specified as is reasonably possible to obtain by means of conventional, professional photographic procedures.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW PLANT
The following is a detailed description of my new carnation variety based upon observation of plants grown under conventional greenhouse procedures in 1988, the color designation being according to The R.H.S. Colour Chart published by The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England.
THE PLANT
Origin: Sport.
Parentage: The variety `Chinera` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,767).
Classification:
Botanic.--Dianthus caryophyllus.
Commercial.--Greenhouse Carnation.
Form: Bush having a total height of seven internodes.
Growth: Upright and vigorous.
Branching: Medium in number.

The shoots grow rapidly and branch freely. The flower being terminal on each of the branches which may be pinched or pruned according to the desired length of the flower stem.
Foliage:
Quantity.--Moderate.
Leaf size.--Medium in both length and breadth.
Leaf shape.--Linear with entire margins and acuminate apex.
Texture.--Smooth.
Color.--Green.
THE BUD
Size: Large.
Form: Ovoid immediately before the sepals divide and becoming bell-shaped upon opening.
Sepals:
Character.--The sepals are upstanding and remain erect as the flower opens.
Calyx:
Size.--Medium.

Color.--Coral Pink, R.H.S. 38-C/D.
Color distribution.--Monochrome.
Texture.--Soft.
Appearance.--Satiny.
Fragrance.--Very faint or none.
Persistence.--The petals hang on and dry.
Lasting quality.--Exceptional as a cut flower.
THE REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS
Androecium: Not present during winter period.
Stamens:
Number.--One or two, only in Summer and not in every flower.
Anthers.--Size: Normal. Color: Cream.
Filaments.--Length: About 1 to 1.5 cm. Color: White.
Pollen.--Color: White.
Pistils:
Number.--From four to eight.
Styles.--Color: Cream, lightly shaded with green.
Stigmas.--A smooth surface having a cream color.
Ovary: Long, irregular in shape and ribbed.
This new variety of carnation is distinguished by its relatively dark pink color compared with its parent variety. Otherwise, the flower shape and size is like that of the parent plants being of the double type and having petals that are deeply laciniated to the extent of about 13 mm. As is its parent variety, this new plant is well suited to commercial greenhouse cultivation for the production of cut flowers which have exceptional endurance and good stability for shipment.
