Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Anthurium plant named ‘Exciting Love’, characterized by its upright and outwardly spreading plant habit; freely clumping growth habit; durable dark green leaves; grayed purple-colored spathes with green-colored margins and pale yellow-colored spadices that are positioned slightly above and beyond the foliage on strong and erect scapes; freely flowering habit; and good inflorescence longevity.
Description
Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Anthurium andreanum cultivar Exciting Love.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Anthurium plant, botanically known as Anthurium andreanum, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Exciting Love’.
The new Anthurium is a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of the Anthurium andreanum cultivar Red Love, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,005. The cultivar Exciting Love was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant from within a large population of plants of the cultivar Red Love in a controlled environment in Schipluiden, The Netherlands in September, 1999.
Asexual propagation of the new cultivar by meristem culture in a laboratory in Belgium since September, 1999, has shown that the unique features of this new Anthurium plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual propagation.
The new Anthurium 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 the cultivar Exciting Love. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Exciting Love’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Upright and outwardly spreading plant habit.
2. Freely clumping growth habit.
3. Durable dark green leaves.
4. Grayed purple-colored spathes with green-colored margins and pale yellow-colored spadices that are positioned slightly above and beyond the foliage on strong and erect scapes.
5. Freely flowering habit.
6. Good inflorescence longevity.
Plants of the new Anthurium are most similar to plants of the parent, the cultivar Red Love. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Schipluiden, The Netherlands, plants of the new Anthurium differed from plants of the cultivar Red Love in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Anthurium had larger spathes than plants of the cultivar Red Love.
2. Plants of the new Anthurium and the cultivar Red Love differed in spathe coloration as spathes of plants of the cultivar Red Love were solid red in color.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Anthurium, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Anthurium.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of the cultivar Exciting Love.
The photograph on the second sheet comprises a close-up view of typical inflorescences of ‘Exciting Love’.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The aforementioned photographs and the following observations and measurements describe 10-month old plants grown in 14-cm containers in Schipluiden, The Netherlands, in a glass-covered greenhouse with average day temperatures of 23° C., average night temperatures of 21° C. and light levels about 6 kilolux.
