ABSTRACT:
A new and distinct tetraploid Pelargonium.times.hortorum cultivar named BSR-284 Pink is provided. This new Zonal Geranium cultivar was the result of a controlled breeding program wherein the TWIST cultivar (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,928) was pollinated by the Sunbelt Coral cultivar (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,757). The new cultivar forms attractive semi-double pink florets which contrast well with dark green foliage. The leaf edges are darker than the centers of the leaves on the upper surface. The upper two petals of the florets commonly include a white eye. The attractive dark green foliage coloration exhibits improved tolerance to stress during shipment. The growth habit is inherently compact and self-branching and does not require the use of growth regulators to maintain such growth characteristic. Good tolerance to wind and rain also is exhibited.
