Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Anthurium plant named ‘Rijn200004’, characterized by its upright and outwardly spreading plant habit; freely clumping growth habit; durable dark green leaves; red-colored spathes with whitish-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 Rijn200004.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
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 ‘Rijn200004’.
The new Anthurium is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Schipluiden, The Netherlands. The objective of the program is to create and develop new compact, freely clumping and freely flowering Anthurium cultivars with strong roots, dark green leaves, attractive spathe color, and good inflorescence longevity.
The new Anthurium originated from a cross by the Inventor on Feb. 8, 1999 of a proprietary selection of Anthurium andreanum identified as code number 9001, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Anthurium andreanum identified as code number 9813, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The cultivar Rijn200004 was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross in a controlled environment in Schipluiden, The Netherlands on Aug. 23, 2000.
Asexual propagation of the new cultivar by meristem culture in a laboratory in Belgium since August, 2000, has shown that the unique features of this new Anthurium plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual propagation.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
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 Rijn200004. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Rijn200004’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
    • 1. Upright and outwardly spreading plant habit.
    • 2. Freely clumping growth habit.
    • 3. Durable dark green-colored leaves.
    • 4. Red-colored spathes with whitish-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 can be compared to plants of the female parent, the proprietary selection identified as code number 9001. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Schipluiden, The Netherlands, plants of the new Anthurium differed from plants of the selection 9001 in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Anthurium had smaller leaves than plants of the selection 9001.
    • 2. Plants of the new Anthurium and the selection 9001 differed in spadix coloration.
Plants of the new Anthurium can be compared to plants of the male parent, the selection 9813. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Schipluiden, The Netherlands, plants of the new Anthurium differed from plants of the selection 9813 in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Anthurium had larger and darker green-colored leaves than plants of the selection 9813.
    • 2. Plants of the new Anthurium and the selection 9813 differed in spadix coloration.
Plants of the new Anthurium can be compared to plants of the cultivar Red Queen, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,813. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Schipluiden, The Netherlands, plants of the new Anthurium differed from plants of the cultivar Red Queen in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Anthurium had more durable and darker green-colored leaves than plants of the cultivar Red Queen.
    • 2. Plants of the new Anthurium and the cultivar Red Queen differed in spathe coloration.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
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 Rijn200004.
The photograph at the top of the second sheet comprises a close-up view of typical inflorescences of ‘Rijn200004’.
The photograph at the bottom of the second sheet comprises a close up view of developing and fully expanded leaves of ‘Rijn200004’.
