Abstract

A new and distinct Dahlia cultivar named ‘LOMBALDEEP’ is disclosed, characterized by distinctive deep red, large, ball shaped inflorescences. The new variety is a Dahlia, normally produced as an outdoor ornamental plant for containers or gardens.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: Dahlia hybrid.
Variety denomination: ‘LOMBALDEEP’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The new cultivar was discovered as a result of a planned breeding program directed by the inventor, Henry Lommerse a citizen of the Netherlands. The seed parent is an undistributed, unpatented proprietary variety Dahlia hybrid ‘245543’ and the pollen parent is the undistributed, unpatented proprietary variety Dahlia hybrid ‘247368’. The cross resulting in ‘LOMBALDEEP’ was made July 2004. The new variety was discovered as a seedling in April 2005, by the inventor in a commercial research greenhouse in Mariahout, the Netherlands.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘LOMBALDEEP’ by vegetative cuttings was first performed in 2007, at a research greenhouse in Mariahout, the Netherlands. Multiple generations have since been produced and have shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘LOMBALDEEP’ 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 ‘LOMBALDEEP’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘LOMBALDEEP’ as a new and distinct Dahlia cultivar:
    • 1. Deep red flower color
    • 2. Large ball shaped inflorescences.
PARENT COMPARISON
Plants of the new cultivar ‘LOMBALDEEP’ are similar to plants of the seed parent, Dahlia hybrid ‘245543’ in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘LOMBALDEEP’ produce inflorescences with a deeper red coloration, and with a different overall inflorescence shape. Additionally, the new variety has a longer flower stem length than the seed parent.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘LOMBALDEEP’ are similar to plants of the pollen parent, Dahlia hybrid ‘247368’ in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘LOMBALDEEP’ produce larger inflorescences with a deeper red coloration, and with a different overall inflorescence shape. Additionally, the new variety has a longer inflorescence stem length and overall larger plant width than the pollen parent.
COMMERCIAL COMPARISON
‘LOMBALDEEP’ can be compared to the commercial variety Dahlia hybrida ‘LOMDAHYEL’ patent pending, Ser. No. 12/928,138. The two varieties are very similar in most horticultural characteristics, including growth habit, and flower shape. However, plants of ‘LOMBALDEEP’ produce different color inflorescences, and begin first flowering earlier than ‘LOMDAHYEL’.
The new variety can also be compared to the commercial variety Dahlia hybrida, ‘LOMDAHBRS’, patent pending, Ser. No. 12/924,599. Dahlia ‘LOMBALDEEP’ and Dahlia ‘LOMDAHBRS’ are similar in most horticultural characteristics, including a similar inflorescence color. However, plants of ‘LOMBALDEEP’ produce darker red inflorescences, and begin first flowering earlier than ‘LOMDAHBRS’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘LOMBALDEEP’ grown outdoors, in Mariahout, the Netherlands, in a commercial 15 cm container. Age of the plant photographed is approximately 70 days 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.
