Abstract

A new and distinct Pelargonium×hortorum cultivar named `BFP-790 Pink Parfait` is provided. This new Zonal Geranium cultivar was the result of a controlled breeding program wherein a plant designated 1797-1 (non-patented in the United States) was pollinated by the plant designated 2006-2 (non-patented in the United States). The new cultivar forms attractive semi-double tricolored florets with medium pink petals having a distinct large rose pink freckle and a white eye on each petal. Attractive dark green foliage is well retained during shipment. The growth habit is medium self-branching and does not require the use of a growth regulator.
