Abstract

A distinct cultivar of Dahlia plant named ‘Lisa Burgundy’, characterized by its large and numerous double inflorescences that are about 8.2 cm in diameter; dark reddish purple ray florets; mostly upright, mounded and uniform growth habit; dark green leaves; and strong peduncles that hold inflorescences about the foliage.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of Dahlia plant, botanically known as Dahlia variabilis, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Lisa Burgundy’.
The new Dahlia is a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of the Dahlia variabilis cultivar ‘Lisa’, not patented. The new Dahlia was discovered by the Inventor in September, 1996 in a controlled environment in Hillegom, The Netherlands, within a population of plants of ‘Lisa’. The selection of this plant was based on its unqiue ray floret color.
Asexual reproduction of the new Dahlia by terminal cuttings harvested in Hillegom, The Netherlands, has shown that the unique features of this new Dahlia are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new Dahlia has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, daylength and light intensity, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Lisa Burgundy’. Those characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Lisa Burgundy’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Large and numerous double inflorescences that are about 8.2 cm in diameter.
2. Dark reddish purple ray florets.
3. Mostly upright, mounded and uniform growth habit.
4. Dark green leaves.
5. Strong peduncles that hold inflorescences above the foliage.
Compared to plants of the parent cultivar, ‘Lisa’, plants of the new Dahlia have dark red purple ray florets whereas plants of the cultivar ‘Lisa’ have light pink ray florets. In addition, ray floret color of plants of the new Dahlia does not fade with development, whereas ray floret color of plants of the cultivar ‘Lisa’ fades significantly with development. Compared to plants of the cultivar ‘Lisa Dark Pink’, disclosed in U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 09/233,134, in side-by-side comparisons conducted in De Lier, The Netherlands, plants of the new Dahlia are more freely-flowering and differ in ray floret color. Compared to plants of the culitvar ‘Lisa Pearl’, disclosed in U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 09/233,135, in side-by-side comparisons conducted in De Lier, The Netherlands, plants of the new Dahlia are broader, have larger leaves, and differ in ray floret color.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying colored photograh 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. Colors in the photograph may differ from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the actual colors of the new Dahlia. The photograph comprises a top perspective view of a typical plant of the new Dahlia.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
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. The following observations and measurements describe plants grown in De Lier, The Netherlands, in 12-cm containers in a glass greenhouse with average day and night temperatures of 22 and 18° C., respectively. Plants were about 8 to 10 weeks old after planting.

Inflorescence longevity.—Inflorescences typically maintain good substance for about 1 to 2 weeks on the plant.
Flower bud (just before opening).—Shape: Flattened spherical. Length: About 1 cm. Diameter: About 1.25 cm. Color: 143A to 144A.
Inflorescence size.—Diameter: About 8.2 cm. Depth (height): About 2.4 cm. Disc floret diameter: About 1 cm; conspicuous only on fully opened inflorescences.
