Abstract

A new and distinct hybrid of Campanula plant characterized by a dwarf habit and pink flowers.

Description

BOTANICAL CLASSIFICATION
Campanula punctata.
VARIETY DENOMINATION
‘Pink Chimes’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct hybrid of Campanula punctata, of the family Campanulaceae, which originated from a cross between Campanula punctata f. albiflora ‘Nana Alba’ (seed parent) and Campanula punctata ‘Cherry Bells’ (pollen parent). Neither parent is patented.
The new variety has been reproduced only by asexual propagation (division and tissue culture). Each of the progeny exhibits identical characteristics to the original plant.
This plant is characterized by the following:
1. Dwarf habit.
2. Numerous large, pink flowers held over the foliage.
3. Strong flowering stems that do not fall over.
Asexual propagation by division and tissue culture as done in Canby, Oreg., shows that the foregoing characteristics and distinctions come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations. The present invention has not been evaluated under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary with variations in environment without a change in the genotype of the plant.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The drawing shows Campanula ‘Pink Chimes’ in flower in a pot.
DETAILED PLANT DESCRIPTION

COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR CAMPANULA
Compared to Campanula punctata ‘Cherry Bells’, an unpatented plant, this new cultivated variety has a dwarfer habit, better suited to potted plant culture.
Compared to Campanula punctata ‘Bowl of Cherries’ (Plant patent application Ser. No. 09/967,087, filed Sep. 27, 2001), this new cultivated variety has the appearance of pink flowers rather than deep red purple flowers.
