Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of New Guinea Impatiens plant named `Miami`, characterized by its numerous large red purple-colored flowers that are held above the foliage; uniform and rounded growth habit; medium plant height; freely branching, dense and bushy plant habit; and glossy, dark green leaves.
Description
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of New Guinea Impatiens plant, botanically known as Impatiens hawkeri, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name Miami.
The new cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Stuttgart, Germany. The objective of the breeding program was to develop varieties with good branching, uniform and rounded growth habit, medium height, early flowering, floriferousness, bright flower color, and large round flowers.
The new cultivar originated from a cross made by the Inventor of the New Guinea Impatiens selection identified as K 127, not patented, as the male, or pollen parent, with the nonpatented New Guinea Impatiens cultivar Hongkong as the female, or seed parent.
The cultivar Miami was discovered and selected by the Inventor in 1994 as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross in a controlled environment in Stuttgart, Germany.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal cuttings taken at Stuttgart, Germany, has shown that the unique features of this new Impatiens are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of `Miami`. These characteristics in combination distinguish `Miami` as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Numerous large red purple-colored flowers that are held above the foliage.
2. Uniform and rounded growth habit.
3. Medium plant height.
4. Freely branching, dense and bushy plant habit.
5. Glossy, dark green leaves.
Compared to plants of the male parent, the salmon pink selection identified as K 127, plants of the new Impatiens differ in flower color, are more compact, more uniform, more upright, and have larger and more round flowers. Compared to plants of the female parent, the violet cultivar Hongkong, plants of the new Impatiens have a lighter flower color, are more uniform, have larger leaves, and have larger and more round flowers.
Plants of the new Impatiens are similar in flower color to plants of the nonpatented New Guinea Impatiens cultivar Kampala. However, in side-by-side comparisons conducted in Stuttgart, Germany, plants of the new Impatiens have a slightly lighter flower color, larger flowers and more uniform plant growth than plants of the cultivar Kampala.
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new cultivar, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. The photograph comprises a top perspective view of a typical plant of `Miami`. Flower and foliage colors in the photographs may differ from the actual colors due to light reflectance.
Plants of the cultivar Miami have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature and light intensity, without, however, any variance in genotype. The following observations, measurements and comparisons describe plants grown in Stuttgart, Germany, under greenhouse and outdoor production practices.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
