Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Poinsettia plant named ‘NPCW06115’, characterized by its upright plant habit; freely branching habit; inflorescences with red-colored flower bracts; and good post-production longevity.
Description
Botanical designation: Euphorbia pulcherrima.
Cultivar denomination: ‘NPCW06115’.
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 ‘NPCW06115’.
The new Poinsettia a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Stuttgart, Germany. The objective of the breeding program is to create new freely branching Poinsettia cultivars with attractive floral bract coloration and excellent post-production longevity.
The new Poinsettia originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in 2000 of a proprietary selection of Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. identified as code number T244, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent, with a proprietary selection of Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. identified as code number T 126, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The cultivar NPCW06115 was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Stuttgart, Germany in 2002.
Asexual reproduction of the new Poinsettia by terminal vegetative cuttings in a controlled environment in Stuttgart, Germany since 2002, has shown that the unique features of this new Poinsettia are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The cultivar NPCW06115 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 following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘NPCW06115’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘NPCW06115’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Poinsettia:
-
- 1. Upright plant habit.
- 2. Freely branching habit.
- 3. Inflorescences with red-colored flower bracts.
- 4. Relatively large cyathia.
- 5. Good post-production longevity.
In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Stuttgart, Germany, plants of the new Poinsettia differed from plants of the female parent selection primarily in plant form as plants of the female parent selection were more upright than and not as broad as plants of the new Poinsettia.
In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Stuttgart, Germany, plants of the new Poinsettia differed from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Poinsettia had darker green-colored leaves than plants of the male parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Poinsettia flowered earlier than plants of the male parent selection.
- 3. Plants of the new Poinsettia and the male parent selection differed in flower bract color as plants of the male parent selection had apricot-colored flower bracts.
Plants of the new Poinsettia can be compared to plants of the Poinsettia cultivar Primero, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Stuttgart, Germany, plants of the new Poinsettia differed from plants of the cultivar Primero in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Poinsettia were not as vigorous as plants of the cultivar Primero.
- 2. Plants of the new Poinsettia had thinner lateral branches than plants of the cultivar Primero.
- 3. Plants of the new Poinsettia had narrower flower bracts than plants of the cultivar Primero.
- 4. Plants of the new Poinsettia flowered earlier than plants of the cultivar Primero.
- 5. Plants of the new Poinsettia had fewer cyathia per inflorescence than plants of the cultivar Primero.
The accompanying photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new Poinsettia. These photograph shows 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 Poinsettia. The photograph comprises a top perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘NPCW06115’ grown in a container.
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. The aforementioned photograph and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Stuttgart, Germany during the spring in a glass-covered greenhouse and under conditions and practices which approximate those generally used in commercial Poinsettia production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 17° C. to 28° C., night temperatures ranged from 16° C. to 22° C. and light levels were maintained at or below 60 kilolux. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for typical flowering plants. Single plants were grown in 13-cm containers and were pinched one time. Plants were about four months old when the photograph and the detailed description were taken.
