Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Argyranthemum plant named ‘OHAR01240’, characterized by its single inflorescence form with pink-colored ray florets and yellow-colored disc florets, freely branching character, medium green-colored foliage and compact upright growth habit.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species of plant claimed: Argyranthemum×hybrida.
Variety denomination: ‘OHAR01240’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Argyranthemum plant botanically known as Argyranthemum×hybrida and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘OHAR01240’.
The Argyranthemum originated in a controlled breeding program in Winmalee, New South Wales, Australia during February 2001. The objectives of the breeding program were the development of Argyranthemum plants that are freely branching having a compact upright growth habit are freely flowering and have unique flower coloration.
The female (seed) parent of the new cultivar was the Argyranthemum cultivar ‘Cobeer’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 14,174) characterized by its fully double inflorescence form, pink-colored ray florets, compact growth habit, and dark green foliage. The male (pollen) parent of the new cultivar was the Argyranthemum cultivar ‘Holly Belle’, (not patented) characterized by its single inflorescence form, light pink-colored ray florets and medium growth habit. Seed from the above stated cross-pollination was germinated and grown to maturity. One plant from within the progeny was discovered and selected by the inventor during October 2001, in a controlled environment at Winmalee, New South Wales, Australia.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal stem cuttings taken since October 2001 at Winmalee, NSW, Australia and West Chicago, Ill. has demonstrated that the new cultivar reproduces true to type, with all the characteristics as herein described, firmly fixed and retained through successive generations of such asexual propagation.
The new cultivar has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions to date. Accordingly, it is possible that the phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in the environment, such as temperature, light intensity, and day length without, however, any variance in genotype.
It was repeatedly found that the cultivar of the present invention:
-
- 1. Exhibits a single inflorescence form with pink-colored ray florets and yellow-colored disc florets,
- 2. Forms medium green-colored foliage,
- 3. Exhibits a freely branching character, and
- 4. Exhibits a compact upright growth habit.
Plants of the new cultivar differ from plants of the female parent primarily in flower form and foliage color, and from plants of the male parent primarily in growth habit.
Plants of the new cultivar are most similar to the cultivar ‘Cobsing’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 13,541). However, in side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new cultivar differ from plants of ‘Cobsing’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new cultivar have flowers of a darker pink color then plants of ‘Cobsing’, and
- 2. Plants of the new cultivar have more ray florets per inflorescence than plants of ‘Cobsing’.
Plants of the new cultivar have larger leaves than plants of ‘Cobsing’.
The accompanying photographs show as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make the same in color illustrations of this type, typical flower and foliage characteristics of the new cultivar. Colors in the photographs differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed description which more accurately describe the colors of the new cultivar. The plants were grown in 10 m cm pots for 10 weeks in a greenhouse at West Chicago, Ill.
The chart used in the identification of colors described herein is The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England, 1995 edition, except where color terms of ordinary significance are used. The color values were determined on Sep. 25, 2003. The readings were taken between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. under natural daylight conditions. The plants were produced from cuttings taken from stock plants and were grown in a double polycarbonate covered greenhouse in West Chicago, Ill. under conditions comparable to those used in commercial practice. The plants were grown utilizing a soilless growth medium. Greenhouse temperatures were maintained at approximately 65°-78° F. (18°-25° C.) during the day and approximately 50-60° F. (10°-15° C.) during the night. Greenhouse light levels were maintained at 6,000-9,000 footcandles during the day. Plants used for the following descriptions and measurements were grown in 10 cm pots for 10 weeks from rooted cuttings.
