Abstract

A Petunia plant particularly distinguished by its lavender pink flower color and creeping, mounding habit.

Description

GENUS AND SPECIES
Petunia hybrida.
VARIETY DENOMINATION
‘Kakegawa S37’.
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Petunia, botanically known as Petunia hybrida, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Kakegawa S37’. ‘Kakegawa S37’ originated from a hybridization made in 1995 in Kakegawa, Japan. The male parent was a breeding line named P-1a (not patented). The female parent of ‘Kakegawa S37’ was a dwarf multiflora breeding pool line with red colored flowers named 87S- 1228-1a (not patented). F1 seed from this cross was sown during the summer of 1995 and 20 F1 plants were selected for further evaluation. Three plants were selected for mass intercrossing to produce F2 seed.
One hundred F2 plants were grown to flowering during the spring of 1996. Nine plants were selected for self-pollination. F3 seed from the nine self-pollinated F2 plants was sown during the spring of 1997 and two plants were selected for intercrossing to produce F4 seed. Two hundred plants from this F4 seed were transplanted to the field during the summer of 1998 in Salinas, Calif. One line was selected and vegetatively propagated for further evaluation. This line was propagated again in 1999, and evaluated for fixed characteristics and ease of propagation. The line was established as ‘Kakegawa S37’, and determined to have its characteristics firmly fixed.
‘Kakegawa S37’ has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics after two years and four cycles of vegetative propagation and this novelty is firmly fixed. The variety has demonstrated stability during this time and has no inherent variation or off-types.
DESCRIPTION OF PHOTOGRAPH
This new Petunia plant is illustrated by the accompanying photograph which shows blooms, and foliage of the plant in full color, the colors shown being as true as can be reasonably obtained by conventional photographic procedures.
FIG. 1 shows the entire plant approximately eight weeks after transplanting a rooted cutting;
FIG. 2 shows the mature inflorescence.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW CULTIVAR
The following detailed descriptions set forth the distinctive characteristics of ‘Kakegawa S37’. The data which defines these characteristics were collected from asexual reproductions carried out in Salinas, Calif. Three plants from fully rooted 15 cm diameter pots were transplanted to one 50 cm diameter hanging baskets and grown in the same conditions. Data was collected on plants in 50 cm diameter pots eight weeks after rooted cuttings were transplanted. Color references are primarily to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London (R.H.S.).
