Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Fuchsia plant named ‘Kiefuwind’, characterized by its compact, upright and outwardly spreading plant habit; freely branching habit; full and dense plant growth habit; dark pink and white-colored flowers; and freely and continuous flowering habit.
Description
Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Fuchsia×hybrida cultivar Kiefuwind.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Fuchsia plant, botanically known as Fuchsia×hybrida, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Kiefuwind’.
The new Fuchsia is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Venhuizen, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program was to create new Fuchsia cultivars with compact plant habit and numerous attractive flower coloration.
The new Fuchsia originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor during the late winter of 1998 of a proprietary selection Fuchsia×hybrida identified as code number 6265-3, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection Fuchsia×hybrida identified as code number 265, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The cultivar Kiefuwind was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Venhuizen, The Netherlands.
Asexual reproduction of the new Fuchsia by terminal cuttings at Venhuizen, The Netherlands, since the summer of 1998 has shown that the unique features of this new Fuchsia are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar Kiefuwind has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature and daylength, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Kiefuwind’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Kiefuwind’ as a new and distinct Fuchsia cultivar:
1. Compact, upright and outwardly spreading plant habit.
2. Freely branching habit; dense and full plant growth habit.
3. Dark pink and white-colored flowers.
4. Freely and continuous flowering habit.
Plants of the new Fuchsia differ from the female parent selection primarily in flower coloration. Compared to plants of the male parent selection, plants of the new Fuchsia are more outwardly spreading and differ in flower coloration.
Plants of the new Fuchsia can be compared to plants of the cultivar Tom Thumb, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Venhuizen, The Netherlands, plants of the new Fuchsia differed from plants of the cultivar Tom Thumb in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Fuchsia were more upright and outwardly spreading than plants of the cultivar Tom Thumb.
2. Flowers of plants of the new Fuchsia were positioned above and beyond the foliage whereas flowers of plants of the cultivar Tom Thumb were positioned within the foliage.
3. Plants of the new Fuchsia had better garden performance than plants of the cultivar Tom Thumb.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Fuchsia, 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 Fuchsia.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical potted plant of ‘Kiefuwind’.
The photograph at the bottom sheet is a close-up view of developing flower buds, fully opened flowers, and upper and lower surfaces of typical leaves of ‘Kiefuwind’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Lompoc, Calif., under commercial practice during the winter and early spring in a polycarbonate-covered greenhouse with day temperatures about 18 to 24° C., night temperatures about 16 to 18° C., and light levels about 4,000 to 8,000 foot-candles. One cutting was planted per 15-cm container and plants were grown for about 13 weeks. 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.
