Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Portulaca plant named ‘Bodhigyel’, characterized by its upright, low spreading and mounded plant habit; freely branching and vigorous growth habit; dense and bushy growth habit; freely and continuous flowering habit; large double bright yellow-colored flowers; and no pollen production.
Description
Botanical designation: Portulaca grandiflora.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Bodhigyel’.
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Portulaca plant, botanically known as Portulaca grandiflora, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name Bodhigyel.
The new Portulaca is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Lompoc, Calif. The objective of the breeding program is to create new Portulacas with dense plant habit, numerous large flowers and attractive flower coloration.
The new Portulaca originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in May, 2001, of the seed-propagated Portulaca grandiflora cultivar Sundial Mango, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with the seed-propagated Portulaca grandiflora cultivar Sundial Pink, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Portulaca was selected as a single plant from the resulting progeny of the stated cross-pollination by the Inventor in a controlled environment in Lompoc, Calif. in April, 2003.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by vegetative cuttings in Lompoc, Calif. since April, 2003 has shown that the unique features of this new Portulaca are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the cultivar Bodhigyel have 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 ‘Bodhigyel’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Bodhigyel’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
-
- 1. Upright, low spreading and mounded plant habit.
- 2. Freely branching and vigorous growth habit; dense and bushy growth habit.
- 3. Freely and continuous flowering habit.
- 4. Large double bright yellow-colored flowers.
- 5. No pollen production.
Plants of the new Portulaca differ from plants of the parents, the cultivars Sundial Mango and Sundial Pink, in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Portulaca have a denser growth habit than plants of the cultivars Sundial Mango and Sundial Pink.
- 2. Plants of the new Portulaca flower continuously whereas plants of the cultivars Sundial Mango and Sundial Pink flower intermittently.
- 3. Flowers of plants of the new Portulaca do not produce pollen whereas flowers of plants of the cultivars Sundial Mango and Sundial Pink produce pollen.
- 4. Plants of the new Portulaca and the cultivars Sundial Mango and Sundial Pink differ in flower coloration.
Plants of the new Portulaca can be compared to plants of the seed-propagated Portulaca grandiflora cultivar Sundial Gold, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Lompoc, Calif., plants of the new Portulaca differed from plants of the cultivar Sundial Gold in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Portulaca had a denser growth habit than plants of the cultivar Sundial Gold.
- 2. Plants of the new Portulaca flowered continuously whereas plants of the cultivar Sundial Gold flowered intermittently.
- 3. Flowers of plants of the new Portulaca did not produce pollen whereas flowers of plants of the cultivar Sundial Gold produced pollen.
Plants of the new Portulaca can be compared to plants of the seed-propagated Portulaca grandiflora cultivar Margarita Banana, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Lompoc, Calif., plants of the new Portulaca differed from plants of the cultivar Margarita Banana in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Portulaca were more vigorous than plants of the cultivar Margarita Banana.
- 2. Plants of the new Portulaca had larger flowers than plants of the cultivar Margarita Banana.
- 3. Flowers of plants of the new Portulaca did not produce pollen whereas flowers of plants of the cultivar Margarita Banana produced pollen.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new cultivar, 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 Portulaca.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Bodhigyel’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a close-up view of typical flowers and leaves of ‘Bodhigyel’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Lompoc, Calif., under commercial practice during the winter and early spring in a polycarbonate-covered greenhouse with day temperatures about 21 to 24° C., night temperatures about 16 to 18° C. and light levels about 5,000 to 9,000 foot-candles. Plants were grown with one rooted cutting per 10-cm container for about 13 weeks. 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.
