ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention comprises a new and distinct geranium plant, botanically known as
Pelargonium hortorum
Bailey, and hereinafter referred to by the name of ‘Amri Bright Red’.
This new geranium originated from a cross made by the inventor of the seed parent 4163-1 (unpatented), a scarlet flowered plant from the breeding line 4163, and the pollen parent 3459-1 (unpatented), a red flowered plant from the breeding line 3459. The breeding line 3459 has the commercial variety ‘Fox’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,083) as it's pollen parent.
‘Amri Bright Red’ is the product of a planned breeding program intended to create new geranium plants with red colored flowers, semi-double flower form, green foliage, vigorous growth and superior cutting productivity.
‘Amri Bright Red’ was created in 1994 in Gilroy, Calif., and has been repeatedly asexually reproduced by cuttings in Gilroy, Calif., and Guatemala over a five-year period. The plant has also been trialed at Okemos, Mich. The plant has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive propagations; and this novelty appears to be firmly fixed and reproduces true to the type.
