ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Carnation plant, botanically known as
Dianthus caryophyllus,
and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name Pink Campari.
The new Carnation was discovered by the Inventor in a controlled environment in Aalsmeer, The Netherlands, in 1998, as a naturally-occurring mutation of
Dianthus caryophyllus
‘Campari’ (U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 09/379,266). The new Carnation was observed as a single plant in a group of flowering plants of the parent cultivar. The selection of this plant was based on its unique flower color.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal cuttings taken at Aalsmeer, The Netherlands, has shown that the unique features of this new Carnation are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Pink Campari’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Pink Campari’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Pink-colored flowers.
2. Upright and mounded plant habit.
3. Good basal branching with about 10 lateral branches developing after pinching.
4. Dark green leaves.
5. Rapid growth rate.
6. Fragrant flowers.
7. Good postproduction longevity.
Plants of the new Carnation are similar to plants of the parent cultivar, ‘Campari’, in most horticultural characteristics, however significantly differ in flower color as plants of the cultivar ‘Campari’ have red-colored flowers.
