Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of New Guinea Impatiens plant named `Arabella`, characterized by its salmon orange flower color, large, generally round flowers, medium green foliage which is without variegation and which is narrow and elliptical in shape; short, relatively weak growth plant habit, and early to medium flowering response.
Description
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of New Guinea Impatiens, referred to by the cultivar name `Arabella`.
`Arabella` is a product of a planned breeding program and was originated from a hybridization made by the inventor Norbert Bull in a controlled breeding program in Goennebek, Germany, in 1994. The female parent was seedling designated no. 5 and the male parent was a seedling designated no. 1. Both parents are proprietary cultivars used in the breeding program.
`Arabella` was discovered and selected as one flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross by the inventor in 1995 in a controlled environment in Goennebek, Germany.
The first act of vegetative or asexual reproduction of `Arabella` was accomplished when cuttings were taken from the initial selection in Autumn 1995 in a controlled environment in Goennebek by, or under the supervision of, Norbert Bull.
Horticultural examination of plants grown from these cuttings initiated in Spring 1996 in Goennebek, Germany, and continuing thereafter, has demonstrated that the combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for `Arabella` are firmly fixed and are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
`Arabella` has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in enviroment such as temperature, light intensity and day length, without, however, any variation in genotype.
The following observations, measurements, and comparisons describe plants grown in Hillscheid, Federal Republic of Germany under greenhouse conditions which approximate those generally used in commercial practice.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be basic characteristics of `Arabella`, which in combination distinguish this impatiens as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Salmon orange flower color
2. Large, round shaped flowers
3. Medium green foliage, narrow elliptically shaped
4. Short and relatively weak growing plant habit
5. Early to medium flowering response
6. Resistant to powdery mildew
Of the many commercial cultivars known to the present inventor, the most similar in comparison to `Arabella` is the cultivar `BSR-195 Salmon` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,870). In comparison to `BSR-195 Salmon`, the flowers of `Arabella` are slightly smaller and have a more orange hue (R.H.S. 43 B compared to R.H.S. 46 C-D for `BSR-195 Salmon`), and although its leaves are similar in shape to the leaves of `BSR-195 Salmon`, the leaf color is a uniform medium green without variegation.
The accompanying colored photographic drawing shows typical flower and foliage charactertistics of `Arabella`, with colors being as true as possible with illustrations of this type.
In the following description color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart.
The color values were determined indoors from flowers taken from plants grown in Hillscheid, Federal Republic of Germany, under greenhouse conditions which approximate those generally used in commercial practice.
The description is based on plants which were planted as rooted cuttings in 10 cm pots in early March and then grown in a greenhouse at 20° C. minimum temperature.
