Abstract
A light pink single freesia (Freesia hybrida Hort.) 'Bolero' was developed from a cross of breeding line ('Yellow Ballet' and 'Yellow Dream') and 'Sandra' followed by seedling and line selections at the National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science (NIHHS), Rural Development Administration (RDA) in 2007. Growth and flowering characteristic tests were conducted from 2003 to 2006. 'Bolero' has single type flower with light pink color (RHS, R55B). It has multiple florets, stable flower shape, upright leaves and stalks. The average cut flower yield of 'Bolero' observed in the greenhouse from 2005 to 2007 was 7.5 cuttings per plant. It has good production of cormlets and vigorous growth. 'Bolero' could be cultured under greenhouse conditions in Korea.
