ABSTRACT:
Classification: The present invention relates to a new Hybrid
Dianthus caryophyllus
plant.
Variety denomination: The new plant has the varietal denomination ‘CFPC Yellow Lacy’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of carnation plant which was discovered by me as a naturally occurring sport in a controlled planting of ‘CFPC Lacy’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,884). The varietal denomination of the new variety is ‘CFPC Yellow Lacy’.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Among the novel characteristics possessed by the new variety which distinguish it from other varieties of which I am aware, are its attractive yellow flowers which retain color without fading. When grown in a greenhouse in Salinas, Calif., in 4½ inch plastic pots, pinched plants are about 7 inches tall and about 7 inches in diameter. Flower diameter averages about 2 inches with a crown of about 1 inch (average). Foliage is about 3¼ inches long and about {fraction (7/16)} inch wide at its widest point.
Asexual reproduction by propagation by cuttings of the new variety as performed in Salinas, Calif., shows that the foregoing and other distinguishing characteristics come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagation.
COMPARISON WITH PARENT
The new variety has yellow flowers whereas ‘CFPC Lacy’ has yellow picotee purple flowers.
