V. (Aalsmeer, NL) Primary Examiner: Bagwill; Robert E. Assistant Examiner: Attorney Or Agent: Rummler; Chas. W. U.S. Class: PLT/280 Field Of Search: ; Plt/70 International Class: U.S Patent Documents: Foreign Patent Documents: Other References: Abstract: A new variety of carnation plant of a solid deep yellow coloration characterized by a vigorous growth and continuous blooming habit, and the stability of the flower color which is the same for all seasons. Claim: I claim: 1. The new and distinct variety of carnation plant, substantially as herein shown and described, characterized by its continuous year round production of deep yellow blooms of relativelylarge size, and by the stability of the flower color which holds throughout all seasons. Description: BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT This new carnation plant was discovered by me at Aalsmeer, Holland, in 1977 as a sport of the carnation variety "Londorga" (unpatented) growing in greenhouse among a stand of plants of the parent variety being grown for commercial purposes. Because of the new flower color and size of the discovery bloom, I decided to propagate it for test and observation and that was done by means of cuttings from the discovery plant at Aalsmeer, Holland, with such success that this kind of propagation wascarried on through several successive generations, which demonstrated conclusively that the novel characteristics of both growth habit and flower color would hold true from generation to generation and appeared to be firmly fixed. DESCRIPTION OFTHE DRAWING My new variety of carnation plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which shows, a three-quarter view and a partial face view of fully opened blooms, one of which has been hand painted to show the true color of the blooms. DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW PLANT The following is a detailed description of my new carnation plant based upon observation of greenhouse grown plants made at Aalsmeer, Holland, in the summer of 1983, the color designations being according to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The RoyalHorticultural Society at London, England. THE PLANT Origin: Sport. Parentage: The carnation variety "Londorga" (unpatented). Classification: Botanic.--Hybrid Dianthus caryophyllus. Commercial.--Greenhouse carnation for cut flowers. Form: Leafy bush. Height: Average. Growth: Vigorous and upright with normal branching. Foliage: Abundant with quantity depending upon season. Size of leaf.--Medium. Shape.--Oblong. Color.--Upper side and under side -- Blue/Green with waxy layer. Texture.--Smooth. THE BUD Size: Medium. Form: Cylindrical. Diameter.--About 1.5 cm. Length.--About 3 cm. Opening rate: Normal. Color of petals: When sepals divide and petals begin to unfurl.--R.H.S. 11A/B. Sepals: Average size and generally curl back when flowers open. Number.--Five. Color.--Inside and outside -- Grey/Green. Calyx: Size.--Medium. Splitting.--Hardly ever. Aspect.--Smooth. THE FLOWER Blooming habit: Continuous. Size of bloom: Medium. Diameter.--About 8 cm. Depth.--About 4 cm. Borne: Singly. Shape: High centered. Petalage: Number of petals.--50 To 60. Arrangement.--Imbricated. Form.--Fan-shaped with serrated margins. Texture.--Soft. Appearance.--Shiny. color.--All petals in all seasons: Upper side -- R.H.S. 11A/B. Under side --R.H.S. 11A/B. Peduncle: Length.--Depends upon season. Color.--Dark Green. Character.--Strong and upright. Persistence: Flower petals hang on and dry. Fragrance: The bloom is slightly fragrant. Disease resistance: This bloom is less susceptible to Fusarium oxysporum as observed at Aalsmeer, Holland. Lasting quality: On plant.--20 days. As cut flower.--10 To 15 days. REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS Stamens: Number.--Average. Anthers.--Size: Medium. Color: Cream. Pollen.--Color: Cream (if present). Pistils: Number.--One. Style.--Length: Approximately 30 mm. This new variety most nearly resembles the variety "Harvest Moon". The flower color, however, is quite new and compared to "Harvest Moon", the plant is less susceptible to Fusarium oxysporum. * * * * *       Recently Added Patents System and method for enlarging amplitude minima in a linear modulation signal Mechanical shunt for use in the sockets of a string of lights Engine having common rail intensifier and method Icon for a portion of a display screen Article design support system and method and medium storing program for article design support Computer device with a modular transmission interface, the modular transmission interface, and an adaptor board Hydroxybiphenyl carboxylic acids and derivatives, method for producing the same and their use   Randomly Featured Patents Thermostat Electroactive polymer-based actuation mechanism for linear surgical stapler Immunosuppressor and method of extraction thereof from leukocytes Piston and cylinder device Voltage selector for a three phase electrical motor Waveguide for a traveling wave antenna Flap valve Angle controller for a switched reluctance drive utilizing a high frequency clock Method and equipment for producing solid granules of pitch in the form of cylinders crushed at the ends Process for making curved walls starting with a flat prefabricated panel formed from three-dimensional metal screen with formed plastic filling © 2006.
