Abstract
A new carnation cultivar particularly distinguished by the solid light pink coloration of its medium sized, rather dense and almost ball-shaped blooms which are borne on long, strong, straight stems on a plant which blooms profusely and continuously with a vigorous, upgrowth habit with moderately abundant foliage, the plant height averaging about 100 to 150 cm., thereby providing extra long flower stems which have a particular advantage for the cut flower market.
