ABSTRACT:

CLASSIFICATION
Pelargonium×hortorum
(zonal geranium).
VARIETAL DENOMINATION
‘Candy Light Salmon’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of
Pelargonium×hortorum
known by the varietal name ‘Candy Light Salmon’, Breeder No. 6DG2606-2. The new variety was discovered in Lompoc, Calif. The new variety is a result of cross breeding of ‘Eclipse Light Salmon’ (female) (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,926) and Seedling Salmon #1279 (male) (unpatented). The new variety exhibits similar plant growth to ‘Eclipse Light Salmon’ and has deeper colored flowers than both parents. The new variety was first asexually reproduced by cuttings in Lompoc, Calif. The new variety has been trial and field tested and has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics and remain true to type through successive propagations.
The new variety was grown in a glass greenhouse in Connellsville, Pa. using full light, 60° F. night temperature and 68° F. day temperature and grown in a soilless media with constant fertilizer at 200-250 ppm nitrogen and potassium.
