Abstract

The new variety of ivy geranium produces velvety flowers having a range of dark pink to bright ruby red to burgundy. The plant has high cutting yield, improved rooting time, controlled plant habit, but also has a neater floret presentation, improved heat tolerance and is less prone to oedema than other varieties in this market class.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This discovery relates to a new and distinct variety of Pelargonium×peltatum identified by the varietal name of `Global Ruby Red` Breeder No. 4DG731 and Oglevee, Ltd. No. 5049. The seedling of the present variety was discovered in a selected breeding program in Connellsville, Pa. The new variety is a selection the crossing of the commercial variety `Nicole`, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,358, with an unpatented breeding variety (Oglevee, Ltd. No. 152). The new variety was first asexually reproduced on Jan. 23, 1995 at Oglevee, Ltd., 152 Oglevee Lane, Connellsville, Pa. 15425. It has been found to retain its distinctive characteristic through successive generations propagated by rooting tip cuttings in Connellsville, Pa. The new variety has been field trialed with outstanding success.
The new variety, when grown in a glass greenhouse in Connellsville, Pa. using full light, 60° F. night temperature, 68° F. day temperature and grown in a soilless media with constant fertilizer at 200-250 ppm nitrogen and potassium, has a response time of six weeks to flowering from a rooted cutting to flower in a 10 cm pot.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The accompanying photographic drawing illustrates the new variety, with the color being as nearly true as is possible with color illustrations of this type.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT
The following detailed descriptions set forth the characteristics of the new variety. The data which define these characteristics were collected from asexual reproductions carried out at Oglevee, Ltd., 152 Oglevee Lane, Connellsville, Pa. 15425.
The color readings were taken indoors on Jun. 11, 1998 on a plant in a 20 cm pot in 200-220 foot candles of cool white fluorescent light. Color references are primarily to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London.
