Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Sanvitalia plant named ‘QuHa 4015/1’, characterized by its low mounding and spreading plant habit; dark green-colored foliage; early and freely flowering habit; and bright yellow-colored ray florerts.
Description
Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Sanvitalia procumbens cultivar QuHa 4015/1.
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Sanvitalia plant, botanically known as Sanvitalia procumbens and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘QuHa 4015/1’.
The new Sanvitalia was discovered by the Inventor in 1999 as a naturally-occurring branch mutation of an unnamed proprietary Sanvitalia procumbens seedling selection, not patented, in a greenhouse in Venhuizen, The Netherlands. The new Sanvitalia was selected by the Inventor on the basis of its larger inflorescence size.
Asexual reproduction of the new Sanvitalia by vegetative cuttings was first conducted in Venhuizen, The Netherlands in 1999. Asexual reproduction by vegetative cuttings has shown that the unique features of this new Sanvitalia are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar ‘QuHa 4015/1’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature and light level without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘QuHa 4015/1’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘QuHa 4015/1’ as a new and distinct Sanvitalia:
1. Low mounding and spreading plant habit.
2. Dark green-colored foliage.
3. Early and freely flowering habit.
4. Bright yellow-colored ray florets.
Compared to plants of the parent selection, plants of the new Sanvitalia are faster growing, have darker green-colored leaves, are more freely flowering and have larger inflorescences.
Plants of the new Sanvitalia can be compared to plants of the Sanvitalia cultivar Aztekengold, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Venhuizen, The Netherlands, plants of the new Sanvitalia differed from plants of the cultivar Aztekengold in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Sanvitalia grew faster than plants of the cultivar Aztekengold.
2. Plants of the new Sanvitalia had larger inflorescences than plants of the cultivar Aztekengold.
3. Ray florets of plants of the new Sanvitalia were darker yellow in color than ray florets of plants of the cultivar Aztekengold.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Sanvitalia showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Sanvitalia.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘QuHa 4015/1’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a close-up view of typical inflorescence buds, typical open inflorescences, and the upper and lower surfaces of typical leaves of ‘QuHa 4015/1’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Lompoc, Calif., under commercial practice during the summer and autumn in a polycarbonate-covered greenhouse with day temperatures ranging from 21 to 27° C., night temperatures ranging from 16 to 18° C., and light levels ranging from 4,000 to 9,000 foot-candles. Plants used for the photographs and botanical description were grown in 20-cm containers and grown for about 14 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.
