Abstract

The new and distinct Pelargonium × hortorum × Pelargonium peltatum cultivar named `Pink Passion` is provided. This new ivy/Zonal Geranium was the result of a controlled breeding program wherein a plant designated 6733-16 (non-patented in the United States) was pollinated by a plant designated 7012B-9 (non-patented in the United States). The new cultivar forms attractive small single deep pink florets having a dark rose eye on each petal. The small medium green foliage is well retained during shipment. The growth habit is compact and self-branching and does not require the use of a growth regulator.
