Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Poinsettia plant named ‘PER1910’, characterized by its uniform, upright and mounded plant habit; moderately vigorous growth habit; freely and upright branching habit; dark greyed green-colored leaves; mid-season flowering response; large inflorescences with marbled pale yellow and dark pink-colored flower bracts; and good post-production longevity.
Description
Botanical designation: Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd.
Cultivar denomination: ‘PER1910’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Poinsettia plant, botanically known as Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd., and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘PER1910’.
The new Poinsettia plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Encinitas, Calif. The objective of the breeding program is to create new uniform Poinsettia plants having large inflorescences with attractive flower bracts and excellent post-production longevity.
The new Poinsettia plant originated is a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ‘PER1139’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 22,180. The new Poinsettia plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant from within a population of plants of ‘PER1139’ in a controlled greenhouse environment in Encinitas, Calif. on Sep. 22, 2009.
Asexual reproduction of the new Poinsettia plant by terminal vegetative cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Encinitas, Calif. since January, 2010 has shown that the unique features of this new Poinsettia plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
Plants of the new Poinsettia 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, daylength 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 ‘PER1910’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘PER1910’ as a new and distinct Poinsettia plant:
-
- 1. Uniform, upright and mounded plant habit.
- 2. Moderately vigorous growth habit.
- 3. Freely and upright branching habit.
- 4. Dark greyed green-colored leaves.
- 5. Mid-season flowering response; under natural season conditions, plants flower in late November in Southern California.
- 6. Large inflorescences with marbled pale yellow and dark pink-colored flower bracts.
- 7. Good post-production longevity.
In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Encinitas, Calif., plants of the new Poinsettia differ primarily from plants of the parent, ‘PER1139’, in flower bract color as plants of ‘PER1139’ have dark red-colored flower bracts. In addition, plants of the new Poinsettia and ‘PER1139’ differ slightly in leaf color.
Plants of the new Poinsettia can be compared to plants of the Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ‘Peterstar Pink’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,879. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Encinitas, Calif., plants of the new Poinsettia differed primarily from plants of ‘Peterstar Pink’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Branching habit of plants of the new Poinsettia was more upright than branching habit of plants of ‘Peterstar Pink’.
- 2. Plants of the new Poinsettia had darker green-colored leaves than plants of ‘Peterstar Pink’.
- 3. Plants of the new Poinsettia and ‘Peterstar Pink’ differed in flower bract color as plants of ‘Peterstar Pink’ had dark pink-colored flower bracts.
Plants of the new Poinsettia can also be compared to plants of the Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ‘PER306’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,398. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Encinitas, Calif., plants of the new Poinsettia differed primarily from plants of ‘PER306’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Poinsettia were not as vigorous as plants of ‘PER306’.
- 2. Plants of the new Poinsettia had darker green-colored leaves than plants of ‘PER306’.
- 3. Plants of the new Poinsettia flowered about three days earlier than plants of ‘PER306’ when grown under natural season conditions.
- 4. Plants of the new Poinsettia and ‘PER306’ differed slightly in flower bract color.
The accompanying photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Poinsettia 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 Poinsettia plant.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘PER1910’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the top of the sheet is a close-up view of a typical flowering plant of ‘PER1910’.
Plants used in the aforementioned photographs and in the following detailed description were grown during the late autumn/early winter in 16.5-cm containers in a polyethylene-covered greenhouse in Encinitas, Calif. and under natural season conditions and cultural practices typical of commercial Poinsettia production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures averaged 24° C., night temperatures averaged 17° C. and light levels ranged from 3,500 to 4,500 foot-candles. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for typical flowering plants. Plants were pinched one time and were 16 weeks old when the photographs and the 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.
