Abstract

A new and distinctive standard carnation cultivar particularly distinguished by its profuse production of large size flowers having a serrated edge. The outer petals are carrot red with delft rose and dresden yellow stripes and a greenish base, the flowers being carried on strong and upright stems.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
This standard carnation cultivar originated as a hybrid seedling produced at Le Pradet, France by my crossing of two plants, hereinafter identified, selected from a field of various carnation varieties maintained at the nursery for breeding purposes. This particular seedling was selected from those produced by the said crossing because of the very unusual flower coloration on a plant having abundant foliage and favorable growth characteristics. This carnation has been asexually reproduced at our nursery in San Remo, Italy. Lonbira (U.S. Pat. No. 5,513) is the most similar commercially available cultivar. Solar differs from Lonbira in its bigger flowers, its more serrated petal and its thicker stem. Under my direction, propagation was done by means of cuttings. The initial success of the propagation was coninued through several successive generations which proved that the new variety retained all of the distinguished characteristics and that these characteristics hold true from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
My new carnation cultivar is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which, in full color, shows the form and coloration of the flowers as they appear. The colors shown are as nearly true to these herein specified as is reasonably possible to obtain by conventional photographic procedures.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW PLANT
The following is a detailed description of my new carnation plant as observed from plants grown under greenhouse conditions in Le Pradet, France, with the stated flower colors being according to the R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England.
