Abstract

A new cultivar of Kalanchoe plant named ‘Fiveranda Pink’ that is characterized by a compact habit, strong branching, long flower life, short response time, a large inflorescence and a uniform crop. In combination, these traits set ‘Fiveranda Pink’ apart from other known existing varieties of Kalanchoe.

Description

Botanical classification: Kalanchoe guignardii×Kalanchoe blossfeldiana.
Variety denomination: ‘Fiveranda Pink’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Kalanchoe plant botanically known as Kalanchoe guignardii×Kalanchoe blossfeldiana and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Fiveranda Pink’.
The new cultivar is the product of a breeding program conducted by the inventor in a cultivated area of De Lier, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program is to develop new Kalanchoe cultivars with interesting and unique flower colors and shapes.
‘Fiveranda Pink’ is a hybrid that originated from the induced hybridization of the female or seed parent Kalanchoe guignardii (not patented) and the male or pollen parent Kalanchoe blossfeldiana ‘Kerinci’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,031). The cultivar ‘Fiveranda Pink’ was selected by the inventor in 2001 as a single plant within the progeny of the stated cross in a controlled environment of De Lier, The Netherlands.
Asexual reproduction occurred when terminal cuttings of the new cultivar ‘Fiveranda Pink’ were propagated in 2001 in De Lier, The Netherlands by the inventor. Since that time, under careful observation, the unique characteristics of the new cultivar have been uniform, stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following represent the distinguishing characteristics of the new Kalanchoe cultivar ‘Fiveranda Pink’. These traits in combination distinguish ‘Fiveranda Pink’ as a new and distinct cultivar apart from other existing known varieties of Kalanchoe.
    • 1. Kalanchoe ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits a compact habit.
    • 2. Kalanchoe ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits strong branching.
    • 3. Kalanchoe ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits a longer flower life.
    • 4. Kalanchoe ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits a short response time.
    • 5. Kalanchoe ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits a large inflorescence.
    • 6. Kalanchoe ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits a uniform crop.
The new cultivar ‘Fiveranda Pink’ is distinguishable from the female parent Kalanchoe guignardii by the following characteristics:
    • 1. ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits smaller leaves than Kalanchoe guignardii.
    • 2. ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits a larger inflorescence than Kalanchoe guignardii.
    • 3. ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits lighter pink flowers than Kalanchoe guignardii.
    • 4. ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits more branching than Kalanchoe guignardii.
The new cultivar ‘Fiveranda Pink’ is distinguishable from the male parent Kalanchoe ‘Kerinci’ by the following characteristics:
    • 1. ‘Fiveranda Pink’ is larger than ‘Kerinci’.
    • 2. ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits a larger inflorescence than ‘Kerinci’.
    • 3. ‘Fiveranda Pink’ exhibits a longer life as a potted plant.
    • 4. ‘Fiveranda Pink’ does not require growth regulators.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The accompanying photograph illustrates the distinguishing traits of Kalanchoe ‘Fiveranda Pink’. The plant in the photograph shows an overall view of a 16 week old plant. The photograph was taken using conventional techniques and although colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance it is as accurate as possible by conventional photographic techniques.
 BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT
The following is a detailed description of the new Kalanchoe cultivar named ‘Fiveranda Pink’. Data was collected in De Lier, The Netherlands from 16 week glass greenhouse grown plants in 6 inch diameter containers. The time of year was Autumn and the temperature was kept at 20° Centigrade during the day and night. The light level was natural outdoor light. Photoperiodic treatments of 3 weeks of long days (more than 14 hours of light) followed by 8 weeks of short days (more than 14 hours of darkness) were used. No growth retardants were used. Color determinations are in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart 2001 edition, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The growing requirements are similar to the species. ‘Fiveranda Pink’ has not been tested under all possible conditions and phenotypic differences may be observed with variations in environmental, climatic, and cultural conditions, however, without any variance in genotype.
