A new and distinct cultivar of Poinsettia plant named ‘PER10101’, characterized by its inflorescences with pale yellow and pale pink bi-colored flower bracts; dark green-colored leaves; uniform, compact, upright and mounded plant habit; early season flowering; nature season flower maturity date is late November for planta grown in Encinitas, Calif.; and excellent post-production longevity.
Description
Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. cultivar PER10101.
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Poinsettia plant, botanically known as Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd., and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘PER10101’.
The new Poinsettia a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Encinitas, Calif. The objective of the breeding program is to create new early flowering Poinsettia cultivars having strong stems, attractive flower bract coloration, uniform plant habit and excellent post-production longevity.
The new Poinsettia is a naturally-occurring whole mutation of the Poinsettia cultivar Eckakmal, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 13,827. The new Poinsettia was discovered and selected by the Inventor in a controlled environment in Encinitas, Calif. on Mar. 29, 2001. The new Poinsettia was selected on the basis its unique flower bract coloration.
Asexual reproduction of the new Poinsettia by terminal cuttings propagated in a conrolled environment in Encinitas, Calif., since February, 2003, has shown that the unique features of this new Poinsettia are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘PER10101’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘PER10101’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
-
- 1. Inflorescences with pale yellow and pale pink bi-colored flower bracts.
- 2. Dark green-colored leaves.
- 3. Uniform, compact, upright and mounded plant habit.
- 4. Early season flowering; natural season flower maturity date is mid-November for plants grown in Encinitas, Calif.
- 5. Excellent post-production longevity.
Plants of the new Poinsettia are most similar to plants of the parent, the cultivar Eckakmal. Plants of the new Poinsettia differ from plants of the cultivar Eckakmal primarily in flower bract color as plants of the cultivar Eckakmal have solid pink-colored flower bracts.
Plants of the new Poinsettia can be compared to plants of the cultivar Eckadria, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,725. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Encinitas, Calif., plants of the new Poinsettia differed primarily from plants of the cultivar Eckadria in flower bract coloration as plants of the cultivar Eckadria had red-colored flower bracts with random pink-colored flecks.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Poinsettia, 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 Poinsettia.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘PER10101’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a top perspective view of a typical plant of ‘PER10101’.
The new Poinsettia has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions, The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, daylength and light intensity, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The aforementioned photographs, following observations and averaged measurements describe plants grown in Encinitas, Calif. during the autumn under commercial practice in a polycarbonate-covered greenhouse with day temperatures averaging about 29° C., night temperatures averaging about 19° C. and light levels about 4,000 foot-candles. Single plants were grown in 16.5 -cm pots and pinched once. Plants were flowered under natural season short day/long night confitions. Plants were about 17 weeks from unrooted cuttings when the photographs and the detailed botanical description were taken.
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.
