Abstract

A new and distinct bicolor tetraploid Asiatic lily hybrid for cut flower production having numerous, upright, red flowers with a red orange blush on tall strong stems.

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 tetraploid Asiatic hybrid lily and given the cultivar name `Red Spider.`
This invention was developed by controlled breeding in Aurora, Oreg. using `Gran Paradiso` as the seed parent and `Tetra Connecticut King` 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) large, tetraploid, red flowers with an orange blush; (2) large red buds; (3) high bud count; (4) early bloom time; (5) short leaves, better for low light forcing; (6) very strong stems; (7) shows excellent bulb cold storage. In addition, this invention shows good disease resistance. Bulbs of this plant may be precooled and forced out of season for very uniform cut flower production.
Compared to `Gran Paradiso,` this invention has bigger flowers, better color, earlier bloom time and better bud color. Unlike `Gran Paradiso`, this invention does not produce multiple aborted sepals. Also, to the inventor's knowledge, there are no other tetraploid Asiatic lilies with bicolor flowers on the market commercially.
Asexual reproduction of this new variety has been accomplished at Cebeco Lilies, Inc., Aurora, Oreg. by scaling and tissue culture. The resulting plants have shown that the abovementioned unique features are stable and reproduce true to type in each successive propagation.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
FIG. 1 is a photograph showing the `Red Spider` lily.
FIG. 2 is a close-up photograph which illustrates in greater detail a single flower of the new plant.
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.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The following is a detailed description of the invention based on plants produced in accordance with generally accepted commercial practices at the Cebeco Lilies, Inc. research station in Aurora, Oreg. in June 1995.
