The present invention provides an altered Gypsophila plant comprising a flower having an altered phenotype, wherein the flower having an altered phenotype comprises an elevated amount of Beta-Carotene, wherein the elevated amount of Beta-Carotene is at least twice the concentration of Beta-Carotene compared to the concentration of Beta-Carotene in a control Gypsophila flower and to methods for selecting altered Gypsophila plants.

A Gypsophila paniculata plant comprising an exogenous nucleic acid sequence encoding PAP1 is provided. Alternatively or additionally there is provided a Gypsophila paniculata plant comprising a flower producing a non-thermally induced red, pink, purple or green pigmentation or a combination of same.

A new cultivar of Dianthus plant named ‘WP22 PIE68’ that is characterized by a compact mounding habit, large single vibrant magenta flowers, blooming from May through October, with a medium, clove like fragrance, glaucous blue green foliage, suitable for use as a flowering plant in pots and containers as well as for use as a cut flower and in bouquets, is disclosed.

A new cultivar of Delosperma plant named ‘W1813’ that is characterized by its low growing plant habit, its very floriferous and long blooming flowering habit; blooming from early summer to early autumn, and its flowers that are bright orange-red in color with small yellow centers.

An interspecific Dianthus plant is provided. The interspecific plant comprises a genomic sequence distinctive of D. japonicus and a genomic sequence distinctive of Dianthus species not being D. japonicus, the plant exhibiting resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. dianthi, race 2 which is higher than that of the Dianthus species.

A new cultivar of Silene named ‘Sunshine n Daydreams’ that is characterized by bright golden-yellow foliage and abundant bright pink-red male flowers produced from early summer into fall. ‘Sunshine n Daydreams’ does not produce seed.
