Abstract
A new and distinct variety of Nemesia plant named ‘Innkarwhi’, characterized by its compact, upright and rounded growth habit; vigorous growth habit; freely flowering habit; white-colored flowers; and strongly fragrant flowers.
Description
Botanical designation: Nemesia hybrida.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Innkarwhi’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Nemesia, botanically known as Nemesia hybrida and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Innkarwhi’.
The new Nemesia is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Gensingen, Germany. The objective of the breeding program is to create new uniform Nemesia cultivars with fragrance and attractive flower coloration.
The new Nemesia originated from a cross-pollination during the summer of 2001 in Gensingen, Germany of a proprietary selection of Nemesia hybrida identified as code number N01 2-4, not patented, as the female, or seed parent with a proprietary selection of Nemesia hybrida identified as code number N01 4-3 tet 4, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Nemesia 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 Gensingen, Germany during the spring of 2001.
Asexual reproduction of the new Nemesia by terminal cuttings in a controlled environment in Gensingen, Germany since the spring of 2002, has shown that the unique features of this new Nemesia are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar Innkarwhi has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment and cultural practices 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 ‘Innkarwhi’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Innkarwhi’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Nemesia:
-
- 1. Compact, upright and rounded growth habit.
- 2. Vigorous growth habit.
- 3. Freely flowering habit.
- 4. White-colored flowers.
- 5. Strongly fragrant flowers.
Plants of the new Nemesia differ from plants of the female parent selection primarily in growth habit as plants of the female parent selection have longer internodes than plants of the new Nemesia. In addition, plants of the new Nemesia do not produce seeds whereas plants of the female parent selection produce seeds.
Plants of the new Nemesia differ from plants of the male parent selection primarily in growth habit as plants of the male parent selection have longer internodes than and are not as freely branching as plants of the new Nemesia.
Plants of the new Nemesia can be compared to plants of the cultivar Imprinno, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted by the Inventor in Gensingen, Germany, plants of the new Nemesia differed from plants of the cultivar Imprinno in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Nemesia were more vigorous and stronger than plants of the cultivar Imprinno.
- 2. Plants of the new Nemesia had shorter internodes than plants of the cultivar Imprinno.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Nemesia, 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 Nemesia.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Innkarwhi’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the top of the sheet is a close-up view of typical flowers of ‘Innkarwhi’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown in Bonsall, Calif. in containers in an outdoor nursery during the summer and under conditions which closely approximate commercial production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from about 18° C. to 38° C. and night temperatures ranged from about 16° C. to 24° C. Plants were pinched one time and were about nine weeks old when the photographs and the description were taken. In the description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
