Variety traits
Pelargonium peltatum (L.) L'Hér.
This trait characterizes the potential shoot length and the rate of vegetative mass accumulation; it is assessed by breeders visually as a qualitative variety characteristic or the physiological status of a cutting.
In the reference 63 varieties crop Ivy-leaf geranium, where this is mentioned in the description.
For ivy-leaved pelargonium, vigor is a varietal characteristic that determines the plant habit and potential shoot length, which varies from 10 to 50 cm or more. This indicator is taken into account during variety testing according to UPOV guidelines and the classification of cultivar series, where it is evaluated descriptively.
In physiological terms, vigor reflects the viability of the starting material during propagation. Apical cuttings demonstrate a higher intensity of rooting and biomass accumulation compared to basal or medial stem segments due to specific characteristics of the hormonal profile.
The level of vigor determines the care strategy: vigorous varieties require intensive pruning and pinching to prevent the loss of ornamental value, and they also require adjustments to planting patterns to avoid overcrowding. The intensity of bush development also dictates the rates of nutrient application.
