Abstract
A new and distinct New Guinea Impatiens cultivar named `BFP-698 Cherry` is provided. This new cultivar was the result of a controlled breeding program wherein a plant designated 6801-4 (non-patented in the United States) was pollinated by a plant designated 307 (non-patented in the United States). The new cultivar forms large bright cherry red flowers that display an iridescent appearance. The foliage is glossy dark green in coloration. An attractive compact upright mounted growth habit is exhibited. The new cultivar can be readily distinguished from the `BFP-467 Cherry Red` cultivar (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,520).
