Abstract

A new and distinct variety of Calibrachoa plant named ‘Filindura Pink’, characterized by its upright to spreading growth habit; freely branching habit; freely flowering habit; relatively large red purple-colored flowers; and good garden performance.

Description

Botanical designation: Calibrachoa sp.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Filindura Pink’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Calibrachoa, botanically known as Calibrachoa sp. and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Filindura Pink’.
The new Calibrachoa 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 Calibrachoa cultivars with compact plant habit, freely flowering habit, and attractive flower color.
The new Calibrachoa originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in 2002 in De Lier, The Netherlands of two unnamed proprietary selections of Calibrachoa sp., not patented. The new Calibrachoa 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.
Asexual reproduction of the new Calibrachoa by vegetative cuttings in a controlled environment in De Lier, The Netherlands since 2003, has shown that the unique features of this new Calibrachoa are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar Filindura Pink 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 ‘Filindura Pink’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Filindura Pink ’as a new and distinct cultivar of Calibrachoa:
    • 1. Upright to spreading growth habit.
    • 2. Freely branching habit.
    • 3. Freely flowering habit.
    • 4. Relatively large red purple-colored flowers.
    • 5. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Calibrachoa can be compared to plants of the parent selections. Plants of the new Calibrachoa differ primarily from plants of the parent selections in plant and flowering habit as plants of the new Calibrachoa are more uniform and are more freely flowering than plants of the parent selections.
Plants of the new Calibrachoa can be compared to plants of the cultivar Super Bell Purplepink, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in De Lier, The Netherlands, plants of the new Calibrachoa differed from plants of the cultivar Super Bell Purplepink in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Calibrachoa and the cultivar Super Bell Purplepink differed in stem color.
    • 2. Plants of the new Calibrachoa had darker green-colored leaves than plants of the cultivar Super Bell Purplepink.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new Calibrachoa, showing 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 Calibrachoa. The photograph comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Filindura Pink’ grown in a container.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The aforementioned photograph and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown in De Lier, The Netherlands, under commercial practice during the spring in glass-covered greenhouse with day and night temperatures averaging 16° C. Rooted young plants had been growing for about ten weeks when the photograph and description were taken. Plants used for the description were grown in 10.5-cm containers. 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.
