Impatiens plant -- Osage

Abstract

This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of New Guinea Impatiens plant, known by the cultivar name OSAGE, and discovered by me in commercial greenhouses in Fremont, Calif. OSAGE is closest in characteristics to Longwood's CAROUSEL, but is particularly characterized by its much larger flower, larger leaves, longer internodes, and more consistent flowering.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct form of Impatiens plant, as described and illustrated, known by the cultivar name OSAGE, and particularly characterized by a large orange flower, large variegated leaves, a stiff upright growth habit, and a more consistent flowering habit than Longwood's CAROUSEL.
