Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Bidens plant named ‘Florbikanre’, characterized by its large, upright, outwardly spreading to somewhat trailing and mounding plant habit; vigorous growth habit; freely branching habit; freely flowering habit; long flowering period; inflorescences with light red-colored ray florets and yellow-colored disc florets; and strong peduncles that hold the inflorescences above and beyond the foliar plane.

Description

Botanical designation: Bidens triplinervia.
Cultivar denomination: ‘FLORBIKANRE’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Bidens plant, botanically known as Bidens triplinervia and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Florbikanre’.
The new Bidens plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Okayama-ken, Japan. The objective of the breeding program is to create new freely branching Bidens plants with unique ray floret coloration.
The new Bidens plant originated from a self-pollination made by the Inventor in Okayama-ken, Japan in January, 2010 of Bidens triplinervia ‘KR-SAIKA001’, not patented. The new Bidens plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant from within the progeny of the stated self-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in Okayama-ken, Japan in May, 2010.
Asexual reproduction of the new Bidens plant by vegetative cuttings in a controlled environment in Okayama-ken, Japan since June, 2010 has shown that the unique features of this new Bidens plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the new Bidens 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 ‘Florbikanre’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Florbikanre’ as a new and distinct Bidens plant:
    • 1. Large, upright, outwardly spreading to somewhat trailing and mounding plant habit.
    • 2. Vigorous growth habit.
    • 3. Freely branching habit.
    • 4. Freely flowering habit.
    • 5. Long flowering period.
    • 6. Inflorescences with light red-colored ray florets and yellow-colored disc florets.
    • 7. Strong peduncles that hold the inflorescences above and beyond the foliar plane.
Plants of the new Bidens differ primarily from plants of the parent, ‘KR-SAIKA001’ in ray floret color as inflorescences of the new Bidens have light red-colored ray florets whereas inflorescences of ‘KR-SAIKA001’ have subdued red-colored ray florets.
Plants of the new Bidens can be compared to plants of Bidens triplinervia ‘Florbikano’, disclosed in U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 13/507,488. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Okayama-ken, Japan, plants of the new Bidens differed from plants of ‘Florbikano’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Bidens were taller than plants of ‘Florbikano’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Bidens had longer and thicker lateral branches than plants of ‘Florbikano’.
    • 3. Plants of the new Bidens had longer leaves than plants of ‘Florbikano’.
    • 4. Plants of the new Bidens and ‘Florbikano’ differed in ray floret color as plants of ‘Florbikano’ had yellow orange and dark orange bi-colored ray florets.
    • 5. Plants of the new Bidens had longer peduncles than plants of ‘Florbikano’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Bidens 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 Bidens plant.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Florbikanre’ grown in a container.
The photograph on the second sheet is a close-up view of typical developing (left), fully developed (center) and fading (right) inflorescences of ‘Florbikanre’.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in 40-cm containers during the late spring in a polyethylene-covered greenhouse in Okayama-ken, Japan and under cultural practices which approximate those generally used in commercial Bidens production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 20° C. to 30° C. and night temperatures ranged from 5° C. to 10° C. Plants were one year 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.
