Abstract

This present invention relates to a dwarf cleome plant, seed, variety and hybrid. More specifically, the invention relates to a cleome plant having a mutant allele for dwarfism, which results in the reduced plant size. The invention also relates to crossing inbreds, varieties and hybrids containing the dwarf allele to produce novel types and varieties of dwarf cleome plants for ornamental purposes.
