Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Senecio plant named ‘Sunsenepiba’, characterized by its upright and mounded plant habit; freely branching growth habit; early flowering response; freely flowering habit; large daisy-type inflorescences with purple-violet and white bi-colored ray florets and darker purple-colored disc florets.
Description
Botanical designation: Senecio hybrida.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Sunsenepiba’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Senecio plant, botanically known as Senecio hybrida, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Sunsenepiba’.
The new Senecio plant is a naturally-occurring branch mutation of a proprietary selection of Senecio hybrida identified as code number RB325, not patented. The new Senecio was discovered and selected by the Inventor on a single flowering plant of the parent selection in a controlled greenhouse environment in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan in February, 2006.
Asexual reproduction of the new Senecio plant by terminal cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan since March, 2006, has shown that the unique features of this new Senecio plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the new Senecio have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment 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 ‘Sunsenepiba’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Sunsenepiba’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Senecio:
-
- 1. Upright and mounded plant habit.
- 2. Freely branching growth habit.
- 3. Early flowering response.
- 4. Freely flowering habit.
- 5. Large daisy-type inflorescences with purple-violet and white bi-colored ray florets and darker purple-colored disc florets.
Plants of the new Senecio differ from plants of the parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Senecio flower earlier than plants of the parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Senecio and the parent selection differ in ray floret color as plants of the parent selection have red purple and white bi-colored ray florets.
Plants of the new Senecio can be compared to plants of Senecio cruentus×Senecio heritieri ‘Sunsenereba’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,122. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan, plants of the new Senecio differed from plants of ‘Sunsenereba’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Senecio had darker green-colored leaves than plants of ‘Sunsenereba’.
- 2. Plants of the new Senecio flowered earlier than plants of ‘Sunsenereba’.
- 3. Plants of the new Senecio were more freely flowering than plants of ‘Sunsenereba’.
- 4. Plants of the new Senecio had shorter peduncles than plants of ‘Sunsenereba’.
- 5. Plants of the new Senecio and ‘Sunsenereba’ differed slightly in ray floret color.
The accompanying photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Senecio plant. These photographs show 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 Senecio.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Sunsenepiba’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet is a close-up view of typical inflorescences and inflorescence buds of ‘Sunsenepiba’.
The aforementioned photographs, following observations and measurements describe plants grown in containers in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan during the winter in a polyethylene-covered greenhouse and under conditions and practices which approximate those generally used in commercial Senecio production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures averaged 10° C. and night temperatures averaged 5° C. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for typical flowering plants. Plants were six months old when the photographs and description were taken. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, Fourth Edition, 2001, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
