Abstract

Description

BOTANICAL DESIGNATION: IMPATIENS HAWKERI.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Tamar Orange Orchid’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of New Guinea Impatiens, botanically known as Impatiens hawkeri and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Tamar Orange Orchid’.
The new Impatiens is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in De Lier, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program is to create new freely-branching New Guinea Impatiens cultivars with freely flowering habit and large attractive flowers.
The new Impatiens originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in 2002 in De Lier, The Netherlands of an unnamed proprietary selection of Impatiens hawkeri, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with the Impatiens hawkeri cultivar Paradise Tamana, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Impatiens was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in De Lier, The Netherlands in 2003.
Asexual reproduction of the new Impatiens by terminal cuttings in a controlled environment in De Lier, The Netherlands since 2003, has shown that the unique features of this new Impatiens are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar Tamar Orange Orchid has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment and cultural practices 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 ‘Tamar Orange Orchid’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Tamar Orange Orchid’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Impatiens:
    • 1. Upright and outwardly spreading growth habit; mounded plant form.
    • 2. Freely branching habit.
    • 3. Dark green-colored leaves.
    • 4. Freely flowering habit.
    • 5. Large dark orange and light pink bi-colored flowers.
    • 6. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Impatiens can be compared to plants of the female parent selection. Plants of the new Impatiens differ from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Impatiens are more vigorous and larger than plants of the female parent selection.
    • 2. Plants of the new Impatiens have larger flowers than plants of the female parent selection.
Plants of the new Impatiens can be compared to plants of the male parent, the cultivar Paradise Tamana. Plants of the new Impatiens differ from plants of the cultivar Paradise Tamana in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Impatiens are more vigorous and larger than plants of the cultivar Paradise Tamana.
    • 2. Plants of the new Impatiens have larger leaves than plants of the cultivar Paradise Tamana.
Plants of the new Impatiens can be compared to plants of the Impatiens cultivar Paradise Amoya, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in De Lier, The Netherlands, plants of the new Impatiens differed from plants of the cultivar Paradise Amoya in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Impatiens had more upright leaves than plants of the cultivar Paradise Amoya.
    • 2. Plants of the new Impatiens and the cultivar Paradise Amoya differed in flower color.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Impatiens, 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 Impatiens.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a top perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Tamar Orange Orchid’ grown in a container.
The photograph on the second sheet is a close-up view of typical flowers of ‘Tamar Orange Orchid’.
