Abstract

A new and original variety of mini-spray carnation particularly distinguished by its many bright cyclamen purple flat blossoms of relatively small size, which are borne profusely and intermittently in clusters on erect stems branching from the main stem of an upright bush that has a height of about 100 cm.

Description

This application is a continuation application Ser. No. 07/770,402 filed Oct. 3, 1991 abandoned.
This new carnation plant originated as a sport of the variety Statropur (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,849) being grown at our nursery in Aalsmeer, Holland. This particular sport was discovered by me and attracted my attention because of its profuse production of unusual cyclamen purple colored flowers and the overall high quality of the plant growth habit. This plant is a sport of unknown causation. The sport was found as a branch of Statropur. Stagiros differs from the parental cultivar in its overall plant height, the color of its petals, and its fruit fertility. Listed below in Table 1 is a comparison of Stagiros with Statropur and other known sports of Statropur. The other sports provided in Table 1 are subjects of copending applications. Serial numbers for these applications are provided in the Table.

Asexual propagation of this plant was done by means of cuttings under my direction at Aalsmeer; and propagation of this new plant was continued through successive generations to determine whether the novel characteristics of this plant would be retained from generation to generation and whether its homogeneity could be assured. This proved to be successful and this new carnation variety is now being propagated at Aalsmeer.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
My new carnation cultivar is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which, in full color, shows blooming stems with buds and flowers in several stages of development, 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 my new carnation variety based upon observation of plants grown in greenhouse as well as outdoors at Aalsmeer and blooming during the current year.
