Abstract
A new and distinct Calibrachoa cultivar named ‘DANOA60’ is disclosed, characterized by large light blue flowers with a yellow throat, early and abundant flowering. The new variety has a mounded growth habit and moderate vigor. The new variety is a Calibrachoa, normally produced as an outdoor garden or container plant.
Description
Latin Name of the genus and species: Calibrachoa sp.
Variety denomination: ‘DANOA60’.
The new Calibrachoa cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor, Gavriel Danziger, in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel. The objective of the breeding program was to produce new Calibrachoa varieties for ornamental commercial applications. The cross resulting in this new variety was made during November 2008.
The seed parent is the unpatented, proprietary seedling variety referred to as Calibrachoa sp. ‘Ca-2154’ The pollen parent is unknown, as the crossing resulting in ‘DANOA60’ was an open pollination, with unidentifiable pollen parents. The new variety was discovered in April 2009 by the inventor in a group of seedlings resulting from the 2008 crossing, in a research greenhouse in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘DANOA60’ by vegetative cuttings was first performed at a research greenhouse in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel in April 2009 and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar ‘DANOA60’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, day length, 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 ‘DANOA60’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘DANOA60’ as a new and distinct Calibrachoa cultivar:
-
- 1. Large flower size
- 2. Early flowering.
- 3. Light blue flower with a yellow throat.
- 4. Mounded plant habit
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DANOA60’ are similar to plants of the seed parent, Calibrachoa sp. ‘CA-2154’ in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘DANOA60’ produce larger flowers of a different color, and more branches per plant.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DANOA60’ are comparable to the variety Calibrachoa ‘DANOA35’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 19,779. The two Calibrachoa varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics, including a mounded plant habit. The new variety ‘DANOA60’ differs in having different color flowers, larger flowers and less branching per plant.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DANOA60’ can also be compared to the commercial variety Calibrachoa ‘DANCALMIDBLU’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 18,123. These varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics, however ‘DANOA60’ has darker blue colored flowers and a slightly less compact plant habit. Additionally, plants of ‘DANOA60’ produce larger flowers than ‘DANCALMIDBLU’.
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘DANOA60’ grown in a greenhouse, in a 13 cm basket. Age of the plant photographed is approximately 3 months from a rooted cutting.
The photographs were taken using conventional techniques and although colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance it is as accurate as possible by conventional photographic techniques.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart 2001 except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe ‘DANOA60’ plants grown in a greenhouse, and moved outdoors during Spring in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel. The growing temperature ranged from 10° C. to 35° C. during the day and from 7° C. to 20° C. during the night. General light conditions are bright, normal sunlight. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical plant types. Plants are approximately 60 days old from a rooted cutting.
