Abstract

A new spray carnation variety particularly distinguished by its substantially all white flowers of which the white petals are edged with red both on the top side and on the reverse side presenting a very startling carnation flower, the flowers being of relatively small size and produced profusely on long, strong, spray stems having an average length of about 60 cm. on a plant having vigorous, upright and rigid growth habit, moderately abundant foliage and a total height, at eight months, averaging about 83 cm.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
This spray carnation cultivar is believed to be completely new in the spray carnation field and origined as a seedling of a hybrid developed by us through the crossing of two selected carnation varieties from our collection of carnations maintained at our nursery at 83250 La Londe-Les-Maures, France. This particular seedling of the said hybrid, when fully developed, was so unusual that it was immediately selected for propagation and test, which was done by us and under our direction by means of cuttings from the selected plant. The result of this asexual propagation of the selected seedling was so successful that continued propagation of this plant was carried on under our direction at La Londe both by cuttings and by in vitro propagation procedures through several successive generations, which demonstrated conclusively that the distinctive characteristics of the original seedling were fully retained from generation to generation and appeared to be firmly fixed.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
This new spray carnation cultivar is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing, which shows a substantially complete flowering spray stem showing its general characteristics of flower and form, with the color rendition being as nearly true to that herein specified as can reasonably be expected from conventional, professional photographic procedures.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW PLANT
The following is a detailed description of our new spray carnation variety based upon observation of plants grown under glass as well as outdoors at La Londe during the current year, the color designations being according to The R.H.S. Colour Chart published by The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England.
