Abstract

A new and distinct standard carnation variety distinguished particularly by its very large generally yellow blooms each of which comprises very many petals with a verigated yellowish and light red coloration whereby the flower in general has an overall verigated yellow red spotted appearance, the flowers being borne singly on long, strong stems of a plant having an average height of about 150 cm. at eight months of growth. This new plant also has a recurrent blooming habit producing flowers profusely during the Spring, Midseason and Fall flowering seasons with moderately abundant production of foliage.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
This new carnation variety originated as a seedling of a hybrid developed by us in 1985 at the Di Giorgio Nursery at San Remo, Italy, by crossing two varieties selected by us from the Di Giorgio collection of carnations maintained at the Di Giorgio nursery for breeding purposes. This particular seedling was selected for propagation because of its very large blooms having a bright overall variegated mainly yellow coloration and propagation of the selected seedling was done under our direction by means of cuttings. Such propagation was carried on through several successive generations at San Remo which demonstrated conclusively that the novel characteristics of the selected seedling would remain true from generation to generation and appeared to be firmly affixed so that homogeneity for commercial production could be assured. The flowers of this new variety are borne singly on long, strong, upright stems of a very tall plant having excellent characteristics for commercial propagation for cut flower production.
Our new carnation variety is now being propagated for commercial purposes by means of cuttings, as well as by in vitro propagation procedures, at Establissements Barberet et Blanc, Laboratoire de Physiologie Vegetalle, 83250 La Londe-Les Maures, France.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
Our new standard carnation variety is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which shows several stems with flowers in various stages of development, one stem having a bud at a stage shortly after dividing of the sepals for opening of the full blossom, the color rendition being as nearly true to that herein specified as is reasonably possible to obtain by professional photographic procedures.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW PLANT
The following is a detailed description of our new carnation variety based upon observation of plants grown in greenhouse, as well as outside, at San Remo, Italy in the Spring of 1988, the color designations stated herein being according to The R.H.S. Colour Chart published by The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England.
