Abstract

A new and distinct Asiatic lily hybrid having numerous white flowers, white buds, and strong stems with good foliage quality excellent for cut flowers.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Lily hybrid referred to commercially as an upright flowering Asiatic hybrid lily and given the cultivar name `Bal White`. This invention was developed by controlled breeding in Aurora, Ore., using `Mont Blanc` as the seed parent, and A-165-80, a proprietary, non-released plant, as the pollen parent.
This invention has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity, and day length, without, however, any variation in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the basic characteristics of this invention which in combination distinguish this lily as a new and distinct cultivar: 1) white, medium size flowers with bright orange pollen; 2) beautiful white buds: 3) high bud count; 4) long lasting flowers; 5) strong stems with good quality foliage; 6) good vase life; and 7) early flowering. Bulbs of this plant may be precooled and forced out of season for uniform cut flower production. In addition, this new lily shows good disase resistance.
Compared to `Sancerre` this invention has higher bud count, more virus resistance, stronger stems, and better vase life.
Asexual reproduction of this new variety has been accomplished at Cebeco Lilies, Inc., in Aurora, Ore., by scaling and tissue culture. The resulting plants have shown that the above-mentioned unique features are stable and reproduce true to type in each successive propagation.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG. 1 is a close-up photograph which illustrates in greater detail a single flower of the new plant.
FIG. 2 is a photograph showing the `Bal White` lily.
The photographs of the drawing were taken in June 1995 in a studio and illustrate the typical flower and foliage form, with color as true as reasonably possible in this type of color photograph.
