Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of carnation plant named Mondriaan, characterized by its dark red main flower color with white margins and darker red throats; upper surfAce of flower is generally flat, generally wavy petal form, with crenate-dentate outer margin; elliptical, flat leaves which are blue-green in color, and it funnel-shaped calyx with short, acute lobes.

Description

The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Carnation, botanically known as Dianthus caryophyllus L., and referred to by the cultivar name Mondriaan.
Mondriaan is the product of a planned breeding program carried out in Nieuwveen, The Netherlands.
Mondriaan was originated by the inventor from a hybridization made in Nieuwveen in 1983. The female parent was the cultivar identified as Pico. The male parent was the cultivar identified as ML 553.
Mondriaan was discovered and selected as one flowering plant with the progeny of the stated parentage by the inventor in a controlled environment in Nieuwveen.
The first act of asexual reproduction of Mondriaan was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were taken from the initial selection in July 1984 in a controlled environment in Nieuwveen by or under the supervision of the inventor.
Horitcultural examination of selected units initiated following asexual reproduction has demonstrated that the combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for Mondriaan are firmly fixed and are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
Mondriaan has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity and daylength, without, however, any variation in genotype.
The following observations, measurements and comparisons describe plants grown in Wageningen and Nieuwveen, The Netherlands under greenhouse conditions which closely approximate those generally used in commercial practice.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be basic characteristics of Mondriaan which in combination distinguish this carnation as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. The base color of the flowers is a dark red, with the petal throats or bases being a darker red, and the entire margin white.
2. The top surface of the fully opened corolla is generally flat, merging into generally concave sides.
3. Foliage is elliptical in shape, relatively long and narrow, and blue-green in color.
4. Individual flower petals are undulating in cross-section with the margin being crenate-dentate.
5. The calyx is funnel shaped, with the lobes being short and acute in shape and not infused with anthocyanin.
The accompanying color photographic drawings show typical inflorescence and foliage characteristics of Mondriaan.
The photo on sheet 1 illustrates a potted plant of the new cultivar with many open flowers and buds.
The photo on sheet 2 shows various plant parts, including an open flower, individual petals, stems and calyx. Colors are as nearly true as possible with illustrations of this type, although the true base color of the flowers is not precisely shown in either of the photographs.
In the following description, color references are made to the Royal Horticultural Colour Chart. Color values were determined indoors in a north light in Wageningen.
