Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of geranium plant named ‘Fip 101’ characterized by the combined features of deep-red, double flowers, numerous small inflorescence, deep green, slightly zoned leaves, moderately short, well-branched, semi-trailing plant habit, early to medium spring flowering response, and generally healthy appearance without cultivation problems.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species of the plant claimed: Pelargonium peltatum L'Héritier.
Variety denomination: ‘Fip 101’.
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of geranium, botanically known as Pelargonium peltatum, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Fip 101’.
‘Fip 101’ is a product of a planned breeding program which had the objective of creating new ivy geranium cultivars with red, double flowers, and moderately compact, but well-branched growth habit.
‘Fip 101’ originated from a hybridization made by the inventor Angelika Utecht in a controlled breeding program in Galdar, Gran Canaria, Spain, in 1997.
The female parent was the patented variety ‘Fizzard’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,992), characterized by large, single-type, deep red flowers, medium green foliage with weak zonation, and vigorous, long trailing growth habit. The male parent of ‘Fip 101’ was the unpatented hybrid seedling no. ‘93-361-3’, having red, semi-double flowers, large foliage with weak zonation, and vigorous growth.
‘Fip 101’ was selected as one flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross by Angelika Utecht in 1998 in a controlled environment in Galdar, Gran Canaria, Spain. The first act of asexual reproduction of ‘Fip 101’ was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were taken from the initial selection in the fall of 1998 in a controlled environment in Galdar, Gran Canaria, Spain, by, or under the supervision of, Angelika Utecht.
Horticultural examination of plants grown from cuttings of the plant initiated in May 1999 in Hillscheid, Federal Republic of Germany, and continuing thereafter, has demonstrated that the combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for ‘Fip 101’ are firmly fixed and are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
‘Fip 101’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity and day length.
The following observations, measurements, and comparisons describe plants grown in Hillscheid, Germany under greenhouse conditions which approximate those generally used in commercial practice.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be basic characteristics of ‘Fip 101’ in combination distinguish this geranium as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Brilliant red, semi-double to double flowers;
2. Numerous, small, tight inflorescences;
3. Medium-green foliage, small leaves with weak zonation;
4. Compact to medium sized plant habit, bushy and well-branched;
5. Early to medium spring flowering response; and
6. Excellent heat tolerance, no development of white shoot tips.
Of the many commercial cultivars known to the present inventor, the most similar in comparison to ‘Fip 101’ are the patented varieties ‘Fizzard’, the parental variety, ‘Fisbeach’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,408), and ‘Guishiva’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,351).
In comparison to ‘Fizzard’, ‘Fip 101’ has a similar red flower color, but flowers are smaller in size and have semi-double to double form, in contrast to the single-type flowers of ‘Fizzard’. Furthermore, the plant habit of ‘Fip 101’ is much more compact with shorter internodes.
In comparison to ‘Fisbeach’, ‘Fip 101’ has a similar flower color and shape, but smaller leaves with weak zonation, and distinctly more compact plant habit, while ‘Fisbeach’ has no zonation.
In comparison to ‘Guishiva’, ‘Fip 101’ has even smaller flowers, shorter peduncles, differently shaped leaves with less distinct zonation, and similar or somewhat smaller plant habit with the branches spreading more horizontally and less upright than those of ‘Guishiva’.
The accompanying photographic drawing shows typical flower and foliage characteristics of ‘Fip 101’ with colors being as true as possible with an illustration of this type. The drawing depicts a branch end of ‘Fip 101’ with typical leaves, buds and inflorescences.
Measurements were taken in Hillscheid, Germany, in mid May 2002, about 15 weeks after planting of rooted cuttings. The plants were growing in 14 cm plastic pots, they had been pinched once.
