Abstract

A new and distinct Anigozanthos cultivar named ‘AJJYE03-0’ is disclosed, characterized by a short compact plant form, yellow flowers, well branched flowering stems and year round flowering. The new variety also has a compact, ball-shaped, well branched growth habit. The new variety is an Anigozanthos, normally produced as an outdoor garden or container plant.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: Anigozanthos hybrid.
Variety denomination: ‘Rambotasy’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The new Anigozanthos cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor, Ian Angus Stewart, in Kangy Angy, Australia. The objective of the breeding program was to produce new Anigozanthos varieties for ornamental commercial applications. The cross resulting in this new variety was made Sep. 21, 2007.
The seed parent is the unpatented proprietary variety referred to as Anigozanthos hybrid ‘A06-0218’. The pollen parent is the unpatented proprietary variety referred to as Anigozanthos hybrid ‘A06-0169’. The new variety was discovered Aug. 24, 2008, by the inventor in a group of seedlings resulting from the September 2007 crossing, in a research greenhouse in Kangy Angy, Australia.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar was performed by tissue culture. This was first performed at a laboratory in Kangy Angy, Australia during 2008 and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type over several successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘Rambotasy’ 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 ‘Rambotasy’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Rambotasy’ as a new and distinct Anigozanthos cultivar:
    • 1. Short plant height
    • 2. Compact and very well branched plant
    • 3. Bright yellow flowers
    • 4. Branched flower stems
    • 5. Year round flowering.
PARENT COMPARISON
Plants of the new cultivar ‘Rambotasy’ are similar to plants of the seed parent, Anigozanthos hybrid ‘A06-0218’ in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘Rambotasy’ are easier to propagate in tissue culture. Additionally, plants of the new variety produce a different ovary color than the seed parent.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘Rambotasy’ are similar to plants of the pollen parent; Anigozanthos hybrid ‘A06-0169’ in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘Rambotasy’ produce inflorescence of primary ramification, whereas the pollen parent produces inflorescences with tertiary ramification. ‘Rambotasy’ also produces a different color ovary than the pollen parent.
COMMERCIAL COMPARISON
Plants of the new cultivar ‘AJJYE03-0’ are comparable to the variety Anigozanthos ‘Rambubona’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 18,207. The two Anigozanthos varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, the new variety ‘Rambotasy’ differs in having a narrower leaf and less flowers per inflorescence. Additionally, plants of ‘Rambotasy’ produce flowers primarily colored Yellow-Orange 17A, whereas plants of ‘Rambubona’ produce flowers colored primarily Yellow-Orange 14B. Plants of ‘Rambotasy’ produce pedicels, ovaries and perianth tubes colored with red hairs, whereas hairs found on the same floral parts of ‘Rambubona’ are colored yellow.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘Rambotasy’ can also be compared to the commercial variety Anigozanthos ‘Bush Tenacity’, unpatented. These varieties are similar inmost horticultural characteristics; however ‘Bush Tenacity’ produces narrower, more glaucous leaves than ‘Rambotasy’. Foliage of ‘Rambotasy’ is less prone to leaf blackening than ‘Bush Tenacity’. Additionally, inflorescences of ‘Rambotasy’ are branched, whereas inflorescences of ‘Bush Tenacity’ are unbranched.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘Rambotasy’ grown in a greenhouse, in a 15 cm pot. Age of the plant photographed is approximately 1 year from a rooted plantlet.
FIG. 2 illustrates in full color a close up of a typical bloom of ‘Rambotasy’.
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.
