Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Philadelphus plant named ‘Snowwhite Fantasy’, characterized by its upright and outwardly spreading plant habit; freely branching growth habit; freely flowering habit; and numerous large showy double white flowers.
Description
Philadelphus×virginalis cultivar Snowwhite Fantasy.
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Philadelphus plant, botanically known as Philadelphus×virginalis, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Snowwhite Fantasy’.
The new Philadelphus was discovered as a cross-pollination of two unidentified selections of Philadelphus×virginalis, not patented. The new Philadelphus was discovered and selected by the Inventor in 1998 as a single flowering plant in a controlled environment in Boskoop, The Netherlands, within a population of the progeny resulting from the cross-pollination.
Asexual reproduction of the new Philadelphus by cuttings was first conducted in Boskoop, The Netherlands in 1998. Since then, asexual reproduction by cuttings has shown that the unique features of this new Philadelphus are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar Snowwhite Fantasy has 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 traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Snowwhite Fantasy’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Snowwhite Fantasy’ as a new and distinct Philadelphus:
1. Upright and outwardly spreading plant habit.
2. Freely branching growth habit.
3. Freely flowering habit.
4. Numerous large showy double white flowers.
Plants of the new Philadelphus are more freely flowering than plants of the parent selections and other known selections and cultivars of Philadelphus×virginalis.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Philadelphus showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Philadelphus.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Snowwhite Fantasy’ grown in an outdoor nursery.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet is a close-up view of a typical flower of ‘Snowwhite Fantasy’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Boskoop, The Netherlands, in an outdoor nursery under full sun conditions. The photographs and the observations and measurements were taken during June, 2001; plants used for the photographs, observations and measurements were about three years old. During the summer, day temperatures averaged 18° C. and night temperatures averaged 10° C. Color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
