ABSTRACT:
Classification: The present invention relates to a new Hybrid
Dianthus caryophyllus
plant.
Variety denomination: The new plant has the varietal denomination ‘CFPC SARI’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of carnation plant which was originated by me by crossing as the female parent the variety known as ‘CFPC LACY’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,884) and as the male parent an undistributed and unpatented seedling identified as ‘970111’. The varietal denomination of the new variety is ‘CFPC SARI’.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Among the novel characteristics possessed by the new variety which distinguish it from other varieties of which of I am aware, are its attractive yellow picotee purple flowers which retain color without fading. When grown in a greenhouse in Salinas, Calif., in 4½ inch plastic pots, plants are about 8½ inches tall and about 5 inches in diameter. Flower diameter averages about 2 inches with a crown of about ¾ inch (average). Foliage is about 3 inches long and about ¼ 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 differs from its parents in flowers that possess a unique color pattern of light purple picotee on yellow background. The parents do have this flower coloration.
