Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Brachycome plant named ‘Nebbra 001’, characterized by its compact and mounding plant habit; freely branching growth habit; freely flowering habit; large inflorescences positioned just above the foliage; dark purple-colored ray florets; and good postproduction longevity.
Description
Botanical designation: Brachycome angustifolia.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Nebbra 001’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Brachycome plant, botanically known as Brachycome angustifolia and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Nebbra 001’.
The new Brachycome plant is a naturally-occurring branch mutation of Brachycome angustifolia ‘Billabong Mauve Delight’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,899. The new Brachycome was discovered and selected by the Inventor on a single plant from within a population of plants of ‘Billabong Mauve Delight’ in a controlled greenhouse environment in Munster, Westfallen, Germany.
Asexual reproduction of the new Brachycome by vegetative cuttings in a controlled environment in Munster, Westfallen, Germany has shown that the unique features of this new Brachycome are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the new Brachycome have 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 ‘Nebbra 001’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Nebbra 001’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Brachycome:
-
- 1. Compact and mounding plant habit.
- 2. Freely branching growth habit.
- 3. Freely flowering habit.
- 4. Large inflorescences positioned just above the foliage.
- 5. Dark purple-colored ray florets.
- 6. Good postproduction longevity.
Plants of the new Brachycome differ primarily from the mutation parent, ‘Billabong Mauve Delight’, in flower color as plants of the new Brachycome have darker purple-colored ray florets than plants of ‘Billabong Mauve Delight’.
Plants of the new Brachycome can also be compared to plants of the Brachycome angustifolia ‘Enduring Blue’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,582. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Cranbourne, Victoria, Australia, plants of the new Brachycome differed from plants of ‘Enduring Blue’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Brachycome were more compact than plants of ‘Enduring Blue’.
- 2. Plants of the new Brachycome had slightly thinner stems than plants of ‘Enduring Blue’.
- 3. Plants of the new Brachycome had smaller leaves and inflorescences than plants of ‘Enduring Blue’.
- 4. Plants of the new Brachycome and ‘Enduring Blue’ differed in ray floret color as plants of ‘Enduring Blue’ had lighter-colored ray florets.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Brachycome, 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 Brachycome.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Nebbra 001’ grown in a container.
The photograph on the second sheet comprises close-up views of a typical flowering stem of ‘Nebbra 001’ (left) and a typical flowering stem of ‘Billabong Mauve Delight’ (right).
The aforementioned photographs and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown in containers in Cranbourne, Victoria, Australia, under commercial practice during the fall and winter in a polyethylene-covered greenhouse with day temperatures ranging from 8° C. to 30° C., night temperatures ranging from 2° C. to 22° C. and light levels ranging from 1,000 lux to 9,000 lux. Plants were pinched about four to six weeks after planting. Plants had been growing for three months when the photographs and description were taken. 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.
