Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Asiatic Hybrid Lily plant named ‘Mount Duckling’ characterized by its medium to large plant size; vigorous growth habit; freely flowering habit; light red purple-colored tepals that are slightly recurved; and good postproduction longevity.

Description

Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Lilium hybrida cultivar Mount Duckling.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Asiatic Hybrid Lily plant, botanically known as Lilium hybrida, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Mount Duckling’.
The new Asiatic Hybrid Lily is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in 't Zand, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program was to develop new potted Asiatic Hybrid Lily plants with erect flowers, attractive flower coloration and good postproduction longevity.
The new Asiatic Hybrid Lily originated from a cross-pollination in 1995 of an unnamed proprietary Asiatic Hybrid Lily, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with an unnamed proprietary Asiatic Hybrid Lily, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The cultivar Mount Duckling was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the resultant progeny of the cross-pollination in a controlled environment in 't Zand, The Netherlands in May, 1998.
Asexual reproduction of the new Asiatic Hybrid Lily by bulb scales in a controlled environment in 't Zand, The Netherlands since November, 1998, has shown that the unique features of this new Asiatic Hybrid Lily are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘Mount Duckling’ 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 ‘Mount Duckling’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Mount Duckling’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Asiatic Hybrid Lily:
    • 1. Medium to large plant size; vigorous growth habit.
    • 2. Freely flowering habit.
    • 3. Light red purple-colored tepals that are slightly recurved.
    • 4. Good postproduction longevity.
Plants of the new Asiatic Hybrid Lily differ from plants of the parent selections primarily in tepal coloration as plants of the parent selections have lighter pink-colored tepals.
Plants of the new Asiatic Hybrid Lily can be compared to plants of the Asiatic Hybrid Lily cultivar Cote d'Azur, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in 't Zand, The Netherlands, plants of the new Asiatic Hybrid Lily differed from plants of the cultivar Cote d'Azur, in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Asiatic Hybrid Lily were more compact than plants of the cultivar Cote d'Azur.
    • 2. Plants of the new Asiatic Hybrid Lily were more freely flowering and flowered earlier than plants of the cultivar Cote d'Azur.
    • 3. Plants of the new Asiatic Hybrid Lily had larger flowers than plants of the cultivar Cote d'Azur.
    • 4. Plants of the new Asiatic Hybrid Lily had lighter colored flowers than plants of the cultivar Cote d'Azur.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new Asiatic Hybrid Lily, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photograph may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Asiatic Hybrid Lily. The photograph comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Mount Duckling’ grown in a container.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The aforementioned photograph and following observations and measurements describe two month-old plants grown in 't Zand, The Netherlands under commercial practice in a glass-covered greenhouse. Plants were grown at a minimum temperature of about 15° C. and the average daylength was about 15 hours. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for typical flowering plants. The photograph and the description were taken during the summer.
