Definitions
- the present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Poinsettia plant, botanically known as Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd., and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Eckadire’.
- the new Poinsettia a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Encinitas, Calif.
- the objective of the breeding program is to create new Poinsettia cultivars having flower bracts with desirable colors, uniform plant habit and excellent post-production longevity.
- the new Poinsettia originated from a cross made by the Inventor of a proprietary Poinsettia selection identified as N59, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent, with a proprietary Poinsettia selection identified as N33, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent.
- the cultivar Eckadire was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross in a controlled environment in Encinitas, Calif., in December, 1998. The selection of this plant was based on its attractive flower bract colors and good plant form and substance.
- Natural season flower maturity date is December 2 for plants grown in Encinitas, Calif.; response time, about 9.5 weeks.
- plants of the new Poinsettia are more compact and flower earlier.
- plants of the new Poinsettia have darker green leaves, darker red flower bracts, and flower earlier.
- Plants of the new Poinsettia can be compared to plants of the Poinsettia cultivar 490, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,825. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Encinitas, Calif., plants of the new Poinsettia differed from plants of the cultivar 490 in the following characteristics:
- Plants of the new Poinsettia are taller and more upright than plants of the cultivar 490.
- Plants of the new Poinsettia have stronger lateral stems than plants of the cultivar 490.
- Plants of the new Poinsettia have smaller and darker green leaves than plants of the cultivar 490.
- leaves of the new Poinsettia have more rounded lobes than leaves of the cultivar 490.
- Plants of the new Poinsettia have smaller and tighter cyathia clusters than plants of the cultivar 490.
- the photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical plant of ‘Eckadire’.
- the photograph at the top of the second sheet comprises a top perspective view of a typical plant of ‘Eckadire’.
- the photograph at the bottom of the second sheet is a close-up view of typical leaves and flower bracts of ‘Eckadire’ (top) and ‘490’ (bottom). Plants used in the photographs were about 18.5 weeks old.
- the new Poinsettia 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 observations and measurements describe plants grown in Encinitas, Calif., under commercial practice in a glass-covered greenhouse with day temperatures about 24° C., night temperatures about 19° C., and light levels about 4,000 foot-candles. Single plants were grown in 16.5-cm pots, pinched one time, and flowered under naturally lengthening nyctoperiods during the fall. Plants used for the description were about 18.5 weeks old.
- Botanical classification Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. cultivar Eckadire.
- Female parent. Proprietary Poinsettia pulcherrima Willd. selection identified as N59, not patented.
- Type cutting Terminal cuttings.
- Time to initiate roots About 10 days at 20 to 22° C.
- Time to develop roots About 28 days at 20 to 22° C.
- Rooting habit Thick, fibrous and freely-branching.
- Crop time From unrooted cuttings to a flowering plant in a 16.5-cm container, about 18.5 weeks are required.
- Lateral branch length About 28 cm. Lateral branch diameter: About 1.4 cm. Internode length: About 3.25 cm. Stem color: 148A.
- Foliage description Alternate, simple. Quantity of leaves per lateral branch: About 8. Length: About 12 cm. Width: About 8 cm. Shape: Roughly ovate with shallow rounded lobes. Apex: Acuminate. Base: Mostly acute. Margin: Entire. Texture: Mostly glabrous with very slight pubescence on lower surface. Surface: Smooth, not rugose. Color: Young foliage, upper surface: Darker than 147A. Young foliage, lower surface: 137A. Mature foliage, upper surface: Much darker than 147A; midrib, 59C, lateral veins, 137C. Mature foliage, lower surface: 137A; midrib, 59B, lateral veins, 137D. Petiole: Length: About 6.5 cm. Diameter: About 3 mm. Color: 59A.
- Inflorescences are compound corymbs of cyathia with colored flower bracts subtending the cyathia.
- Natural flowering season Autumn/winter in Northern Hemisphere. Flower initiation and development can be induced under long nyctoperiod conditions. Response time, about 9.5 weeks; natural season flower maturity date is December 2 for plants grown in Encinitas, Calif.
- Plants of the new Poinsettia maintain good substance and bract color for about 4 to 6 weeks under interior conditions and for about 8 weeks under greenhouse conditions.
- Quantity of inflorescences One per lateral branch, usually about 7 per plant.
- Inflorescence size Diameter: About 30 cm. Height (depth): About 5.5 cm.
- Cyathia Quantity: Usually about 5 to 9 per corymb. Diameter of cyathia cluster: About 2 by 2.5 cm. Length: About 1 cm. Width: About 5 mm. Shape: Ovate. Color: Immature: 144A. Mature: 144A to 144B. Peduncle: Length: About 4 mm. Aspect: Strong, erect. Color: 144B. Stamens: Stamen number: Typically about 15 per cyathium. Anther shape: Oval. Anther length: About 1 mm. Anther color: 46A. Amount of pollen: Scarce. Pollen color: 12A. Pistils: Not observed. Nectary number: One or two per cyathia. Nectary color: 24A.
