ABSTRACT:
Classification: The present invention relates to a new Hybrid
Dianthus caryophyllus
plant.
Variety denomination: The new plant has the varietal denomination ‘CFPC ESSENCE’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of carnation plant. The varietal denomination of the new variety is ‘CFPC ESSENCE’. The parents of the new variety are not known. It is the result of open pollenation by unknown seedlings.
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 light yellow picotee pink 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 2⅛ 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.
