Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Impatiens plant named ‘Fidimpredbico’ characterized by its upright and outwardly spreading growth habit; mounded plant form; freely branching habit; dark green-colored leaves; freely flowering habit; large orange red and light red bi-colored flowers; and good garden performance.

Description

Botanical designation: Impatiens hawkeri.
Cultivar denomination: ‘FIDIMPREDBICO’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of New Guinea Impatiens plant, botanically known as Impatiens hawkeri and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Fidimpredbico’.
The new Impatiens plant 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 New Guinea Impatiens plants with freely flowering habit and large attractive flowers.
The new Impatiens plant originated from a cross-pollination made in 2006 by the Inventor in De Lier, The Netherlands of an unnamed proprietary selection of Impatiens hawkeri, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Impatiens hawkeri identified as code number AMI 1011, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Impatiens plant 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 Impatiens plant by vegetative cuttings in a controlled environment in De Lier, The Netherlands since 2008, has shown that the unique features of this new Impatiens plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the new Impatiens plant 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 ‘Fidimpredbico’ . These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Fidimpredbico’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Impatiens plant:
    • 1. Upright and outwardly spreading growth habit; mounded plant form.
    • 2. Freely branching habit.
    • 3. Dark green-colored leaves.
    • 4. Freely flowering habit.
    • 5. Large orange red and light red bi-colored flowers.
    • 6. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Impatiens can be compared to plants of the female parent selection. Plants of the new Impatiens differ from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Impatiens had slightly larger flowers than plants of the female parent selection.
    • 2. Flowers of plants of the new Impatiens and the female parent selection differ in flower color.
Plants of the new Impatiens can be compared to plants of the male parent selection. Plants of the new Impatiens differ from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Impatiens are more freely branching than plants of the male parent selection.
    • 2. Plants of the new Impatiens do not stretch whereas plants of the male parent selection stretch.
Plants of the new Impatiens can be compared to plants of Impatiens ‘Tamar Red Bicolor’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 17,966. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in De Lier, The Netherlands, plants of the new Impatiens differed from plants of ‘Tamar Red Bicolor’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Impatiens were more vigorous than plants of ‘Tamar Red Bicolor’.
      • 2. Flowers of plants of the new Impatiens were darker orange red in color than plants of ‘Tamar Red Bicolor’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new Impatiens plant, 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 Impatiens plant. The photograph comprises a top perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Fidimpredbico’ grown in a container.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
