Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Begonia plant named ‘Sunjiradare’, characterized by its compact, outwardly spreading and mounding plant habit; vigorous growth habit; freely branching habit; and numerous single dark red-colored flowers that are held above and beyond the foliar plane.
Description
Botanical designation: Begonia×tuberhybrida.
Cultivar denomination: ‘SUNJIRADARE’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Begonia plant, botanically known as Begonia×tuberhybrida and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Sunjiradare’.
The new Begonia plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Narusawa-mura, Minamituru-gun, Yamanashi, Japan. The objective of the breeding program is to create new compact and freely branching Begonia plants with a mounding plant habit and attractive leaf and flower coloration.
The new Begonia plant originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in Narusawa-mura, Minamituru-gun, Yamanashi, Japan in June, 2007 of a proprietary selection of Begonia×tuberhybrida identified as code number FC04Rp324N, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Begonia×tuberhybrida identified as code number FC04Cr312N2, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Begonia plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant from within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Narusawa-mura, Minamituru-gun, Yamanashi, Japan in July, 2008.
Asexual reproduction of the new Begonia plant by cuttings taken in a controlled greenhouse environment in Narusawa-mura, Minamituru-gun, Yamanashi, Japan since July, 2008 has shown that the unique features of this new Begonia plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the new Begonia have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions and cultural practices. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environmental conditions 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 ‘Sunjiradare’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Sunjiradare’ as a new and distinct Begonia plant:
-
- 1. Compact, outwardly spreading and mounding plant habit.
- 2. Vigorous growth habit.
- 3. Freely branching habit.
- 4. Numerous single dark red-colored flowers that are held above and beyond the foliar plane.
Plants of the new Begonia differ primarily from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Begonia have thicker stems than plants of the female parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Begonia have smaller male flowers than plants of the female parent selection.
- 3. Plants of the new Begonia and the female parent selection differ in flower color as plants of the female parent selection have rose pink-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Begonia differ primarily from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Begonia have larger leaves than plants of the male parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Begonia have larger male flowers than plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Begonia can be compared to plants of Begonia×tuberhybrida ‘Firecracker Orange’, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Narusawa-mura, Minamituru-gun, Yamanashi, Japan, plants of the new Begonia differed primarily from plants of ‘Firecracker Orange’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Begonia were more compact than plants of ‘Firecracker Orange’.
- 2. Plants of the new Begonia had shorter internodes than plants of ‘Firecracker Orange’.
- 3. Plants of the new Begonia had shorter leaves and leaf petioles than plants of ‘Firecracker Orange’.
- 4. Plants of the new Begonia and ‘Firecracker Orange’ differed in leaf and leaf petiole color.
- 5. Plants of the new Begonia had larger male flowers and smaller female flowers than plants of ‘Firecracker Orange’.
- 6. Plants of the new Begonia and ‘Firecracker Orange’ differed in flower color as plants of ‘Firecracker Orange’ had orange red-colored flowers.
- 7. Plants of the new Begonia had shorter peduncles than plants of ‘Firecracker Orange’.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Begonia plant 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 Begonia plant.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Sunjiradare’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet is a close up view of a typical flower of ‘Sunjiradare’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown during the autumn in 12-cm containers in a polyethylene-covered greenhouse in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan under commercial practices. During the production of the plants, the day temperatures averaged 23° C. and the night temperatures averaged 13° C. Plants were four months old when the photographs and description were taken. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2007 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
