Impatiens plant--Seneca

Abstract

This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of New Guinea Impatiens plant, known by the cultivar name SENECA, and discovered by me in commercial greenhouses in Fremont, Calif. SENECA is closest in characteristics to U.S.D.A. ARABESQUE but is particularly characterized by its spreading, yet stiff growth; more open growth habit; its dark variegated foliage; its smaller, yet darker candy-striping on white flowers; and its greater flower numbers.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct form of Impatiens plant as described and illustrated, known by the cultivar name SENECA, and particularly characterized by its dark variegated foliage; its smaller, yet darker candy striping of a white flower; its more open growth habit; its spreading, yet stiff growth; and its floriferousness.
