Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of New Guinea Impatiens plant named ‘Fisupnic Salmon’, characterized by its outwardly spreading and uniformly mounded plant habit; tall growth habit; freely branching and freely flowering habit; dark green-colored foliage; and large, nearly rounded, orange red-colored flowers that are positioned above and beyond the foliage.

Description

Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Impatiens hawkeri cultivar Fisupnic Salmon.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of New Guinea Impatiens plant, botanically known as Impatiens hawkeri, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Fisupnic Salmon’.
The new Impatiens is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Hillscheid, Germany and Galder, Gran Canaria, Spain. The objective of the breeding program is to develop new vigorous Impatiens cultivars with medium flowering response and large rounded flowers with attractive coloration.
The new Impatiens originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor during the spring of 1999 of the Impatiens hawkeri cultivar Danharsal, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,090, as the female, or seed, parent with the Impatiens hawkeri Kipas, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,432, as the male, or pollen, parent. The cultivar Fisupnic Salmon was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Galder, Gran Canaria, Spain in April, 2000.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal cuttings taken in Galder, Gran Canaria, Spain, since July, 2000, has shown that the unique features of this new Impatiens are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Fisupnic Salmon’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Fisupnic Salmon’ as a new and distinct Impatiens cultivar:
1. Outwardly spreading and uniformly mounded plant habit; tall growth habit.
2. Freely branching and freely flowering habit.
3. Dark green-colored foliage.
4. Large, nearly rounded, orange red-colored flowers that are positioned above or beyond the foliage.
Plants of the new Impatiens are most similar to plants of the female parent, the cultivar Danharsal. In side-by-side comparisons conducted by the Inventor in Hillscheid, Germany, plants of the new Impatiens differed from plants of the cultivar Danharsal in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Impatiens were taller and more vigorous than plants of the cultivar Danharsal.
2. Plants of the new Impatiens had longer, narrower and lighter green-colored leaves than plants of the cultivar Danharsal.
3. Plants of the new Impatiens had larger flowers than plants of the cultivar Danharsal.
4. Plants of the new Impatiens had darker colored flowers than plants of the cultivar Danharsal.
Plants of the new Impatiens can be compared to plants of the male parent, the cultivar Kipas. In side-by-side comparisons conducted by the Inventor in Hillscheid, Germany, plants of the new Impatiens differed from plants of the cultivar Kipas in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Impatiens were larger and more vigorous than plants of the cultivar Kipas.
2. Plants of the new Impatiens and the cultivar Kipas differed in flower coloration as plants of the cultivar Kipas had purple-colored flowers.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new cultivar, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photograph may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Impatiens. The photograph comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Fisupnic Salmon’ grown in a container.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The cultivar Fisupnic Salmon 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 aforementioned photograph, following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Hillscheid, Germany, under commercial production practice in a glass-covered greenhouse. Rooted young plants were planted in 12-cm containers and the aforementioned photograph and following observations and measurements were taken about 11 weeks later. During the production of the plants, day temperatures were about 18 to 22° C. and night temperatures were about 16 to 18° C. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
