Abstract
A new Pentas plant particularly distinguished by rose flowers, a large flower cluster size, upright form, and a compact and branching growth habit is disclosed.
Description
Genus and species: Pentas lanceolate.
Variety denomination: ‘NAKPEN005’.
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Pentas, botanically known as Pentas lanceolata, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘NAKPEN005’. The new cultivar originated from a hybridization made in 1995 in Fujisawa, Japan. An initial cross was made between a commercial female Pentas plant designated ‘New Look Red’ (unpatented) having red flowers, a half-domed shaped flowers cluster and a long flowering period, and a commercial male Pentas plant designated ‘New Look Rose’ (unpatented) having dark pink flowers, large flower clusters, a long flowering period and a branching growth habit. The F1 seeds produced by the hybridization were sown in a greenhouse in 1996 and later transplanted to an outdoor trial. The F1 plants were evaluated and selected based on compact growth habit, branching, and large flower clusters. The F2 generation seed was sown in 1997, the F3 generation seed was sown in 1998, and the F4 generation seed was sown in 1999 and later transplanted to an outdoor trial. A single plant selection was chosen for further evaluation and for asexual propagation in 1999 based on its deep purple rose flower color, branching and compact growth habit, and large flower clusters.
This single plant selection was asexually propagated and further evaluated in Fujisawa, Japan in 2001 in an indoor pot trail and an outdoor trial to confirm the uniformity and stability of its characteristics. In 2003, another indoor pot trial and outdoor trial were performed to confirm uniqueness. The plant was also trialed in Salinas, Calif. The selection subsequently was named ‘NAKPEN005’ and found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive asexual propagations.
Plants Breeder's Rights for this cultivar were applied for in Canada on Mar. 31, 2006.
The following are the most outstanding and distinguishing characteristics of this new cultivar when grown under normal horticultural practices in Salinas, Calif.
-
- 1. Rose flower color;
- 2. Large flower cluster size;
- 3. A branching growth habit; and
- 4. An upright and compact plant habit.
This new Pentas plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographs which show overall plant habit including blooms, buds, and foliage of the plant; the colors shown are as true as can be reasonably obtained by conventional photographic procedures.
The following detailed description sets forth the distinctive characteristics of ‘NAKPEN005’. The data which define these characteristics were collected from asexual reproductions carried out in Salinas, Calif. The data were obtained from plants grown about seven months from transplant in 6″ pots from rooted cuttings under greenhouse conditions. The plants were pinched by nipping and shearing off new growth to force branching and increased numbers of blooms later. The following traits and characteristics describe the new variety. Color references are to the Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 4th edition. Anatomic labels are from The Cambridge Illustrated Glossy of Botanical Terms, by M. Hickey and C. King, Cambridge University Press.
- Classification:
-
- Family.—Rubiaceae.
- Botanical name.—Pentas lanceolata.
- Common name.—Pentas.
-
- Parentage:
-
- Female parent of the initial cross.—‘New Look Red’ an unpatented red flowered Pentas plant.
- Male parent of the initial cross.—‘New Look Rose’ an unpatented dark pink flowered Pentas plant.
-
- Growth:
-
- Time to produce a rooted cutting.—The terminal 1.0 to 1.5 inches of an actively growing stem was excised. The vegetative cuttings were propagated in five to six weeks. The base of the cuttings were dipped for one to two seconds in a 1:9 solution of DIP 'N GROW (1 part solution: 9 parts water) root inducing solution immediately prior to placing into the cell trays. Cuttings were placed into plastic cells trays having 98 cells, and containing a moistened peat moss-based growing medium. The cuttings were misted with water from overhead for 10 seconds every 30 minutes until sufficient roots were formed.
- Environmental conditions for plant growth.—Rooted cuttings were transplanted and grown in 20-cm diameter plastic pots in a glass greenhouse located in Salinas, Calif. Pots contained a pest moss-based growing medium. Soluble fertilizer containing 20% nitrogen, 10% phosphorous and 20% potassium was applied once a day or every other day by overhead irrigation. Pots were top-dressed with a dry, slow release fertilizer containing 20% nitrogen, 10% phosphorous and 18% potassium. The typical average air temperature was 24° C.
