Abstract: A new variety of carnation of the spray or miniature type distinguished by its medium sized, bright yellow flowers each borne singly on a strong, erect and relatively long pedicel; its continuous and profuse blooming habit; and its moderately abundant blue-green foliage.

Abstract: A new variety of carnation plant of the spray or miniature type distinguished by the deep pink coloration of its medium sized, high centered blooms which are produced continuously on plants of about average height and which are borne singly on sturdy, long and upright peduncles.

Abstract: A new alstroemeria cultivar similar in most respects to King Cardinal (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,634) and distinguished by having pink and yellow flower petals, the outer row of petals each having a pink body overcast with a more-or-less central blotch of dark pink which occasionally extends to the petal tip and the petals of the inner row being of a yellowish hue overcast by short, longitudinally-extending pencil stripes of a brown color and having a dark pink coloration at the flower throat.

Abstract: A new alstroemeria variety, originated as a seedling in greenhouse at Aalsmeer, Holland, resulting from my crossing of selected greenhouse varieties, grown for breeding purposes at Aalsmeer, with the object of developing new flower color in plants having good flowering characteristics during the fall, winter and spring months. This particular seedling was selected for propagation and testing because of its very lovely light purple coloring and its profuse production of blooms borne on relatively long and strong peduncles. Propagation of this cultivar through successive generations at Aalsmeer, by division of root stocks, has demonstrated that its novel characteristics hold true from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed.

Abstract: A new alstroemeria cultivar characterized by its bright purple flower, the inner petals of which have a light yellow base over which short brown pencil stripe spots appear in longitudinal rows extending substantially to the tip of the petals, by its substantially continuous year-around profuse production of medium sized blooms, and by its vigorous upright growth habit with numerous blossoms in compound umbel arrangement at the top of a strong upright stem of about 1.50 m. in length.

Abstract: A new alstroemeria cultivar having medium sized flowers in the scarlet range of red color and particularly distinguished by its abundant foliage and vigorous growth habit which produces a tall cane bearing an umbel form of inflorescence at its top with a profuse array of flowers which bloom continuously during both Spring and Fall blooming seasons.

Abstract: A new variety of carnation plant distinguished by the orange red coloring of its relatively large blooms which are borne on strong, upright flower stems and by its continuous production of flowers which retain the same coloration in all seasons of blooming.

Abstract: A new variety of carnation plant having pale yellow blooms of medium size with a relatively large number of petals, the flowers being produced continuously and profusely on upright flower stems of good strength, the plant itself having a vigorous, upright growth habit with abundant production of foliage and characterized by its flowers being less susceptible to fusarium oxysporum.

Abstract: A new variety of miniature carnation of the spray type particularly distinguished by its profuse production of flowers and particularly more flowers per stem than normally occurs on plants of the miniature carnation type, and by its strong, upright growth habit and rapid production of blooms.

Abstract: A new and distinct alstroemeria cultivar particularly distinguished by the generally light red-purple coloration of its very large flowers, the petals of which have a rhodamine purple body color overcase by a longitudinally extending central portion of a darker roseine purple color which presents a very unusual variegated color display. This new plant is further distinguished by its continuous and profuse blooming habit, its vigorous, strong and upright growth and by the excellent lasting quality of its blooms both on the plant and as cut flowers.

Abstract: A new carnation cultivar distinguished by its medium sized blooms of a generally pink and white coloration borne raceme on long, strong stems, the flower petals occasionally bearing longitudinal stripes of a dark red color which produce a very unusual variegated pink and white overall presentation.

Abstract: A new variety of miniature white carnation plant characterized by its continuous production of small white blooms of somewhat smaller than normal size and with a larger number of flowers appearing on each flowering stem.

Abstract: A new red carnation variety characterized by its deep red coloration, large size and many closely-spaced petals of uniform color, by its continuous blooming and strong upright growth habit with abundant production of foliage and strong resistance to fusarium oxysporum.

Abstract: A new and distinct alstroemeria variety particularly characterized by its medium sized, very light pink and yellow flower petals, the outer row of petals being of a uniform empire rose color and the inner petals having an indian yellow longitudinally-extending coloration for almost the entire length of the petal and the yellow areas having ruby red pencil stripes which give the flower a very distinctive appearance.

Abstract: A new miniature carnation variety having light yellow flowers of medium size which are produced continuously on strong, upright flower stems, this plant being distinguished by producing a larger number of smaller flowers per flower stem than is normally found in common miniature carnation varieties, the plant itself having a vigorous, strong and upright growth habit with normal branching character and abundant foliage.

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.

Abstract: A new carnation variety having blooms of medium size and abundant petalage which is generally of an almost white color and is marked near its outer end by dark red stripes of various lengths which gives the fully opened bloom a startling and very unusual overall variegated cream and red coloration, the plant itself having an upright growth habit with good strength and an abundant production of foliage.

Abstract: A new variety of carnation plant distinguished by the very light chartreuse-green coloring of its medium sized blooms which are borne raceme on long, strong flower stems, by its upright growth habit with good strength and continuous Spring and Fall flower production.

Abstract: A new carnation cultivar distinguished by its relatively small blooms of red-purple coloration which are produced continuously, Spring and Fall, on long, strong flowering stems having an upright growth habit with abundant foliage.

Abstract: A new variety of miniature carnation characterized by its rapid and continuous production of small red-purple blooms with a larger number than normal of flowers appearing on each flower stem and its tall, strong and upright growth habit.
