Abstract

A new cultivar of Dianthus plant named ‘WP11 TYR04’ which is characterized by a compact mounding habit, blue-green foliage, fragrant single flowers that are strongly patterned cherry red with white-pink markings and a deep cherry eye, and ruffled petal edges. In combination, these characteristics set ‘WP11 TYR04’ apart from all other existing varieties of Dianthus known to the inventor.

Description

Genus: Dianthus.
Species: ×hybrida.
Denomination: ‘WP11 TYR04’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This application claims the benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C. 119(f) of the earlier application for European Community Plant Variety Rights which was filed for the instant plant variety on Feb. 3, 2012, Application Number 2012/0271.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of hardy garden pink, that is grown for use as a flowering plant for pots and containers and for planting in the garden and landscape. The new cultivar is known botanically as Dianthus×hybrida and will be referred to hereinafter by the cultivar name ‘WP11 TYR04’.
‘WP11 TYR04’ is a complex hybrid plant that is the product of a long term breeding program conducted by the inventor in a cultivated area of Houndspool, Dawlish, Devon, United Kingdom. The inventor selected ‘WP11TYR04’ in 2004 for its strongly patterned cherry red, white-pink single flowers with a deep cherry eye, ruffled petal edges, moderate fragrance and blue-green foliage.
‘WP11 TYR04’ arose and was selected as a seedling which resulted from the open pollination of an existing selection of Dianthus from the inventor's breeding program, namely Dianthus code name ‘Zora’ (unpatented and unreleased) as the female parent plant, by an unknown selection from the breeding program as male parent plant. The male parent was growing within the inventor's stock of breeding lines.
‘WP11 TYR04’ is distinguishable from the female parent as follows: Whereas the flower of ‘WP11 TYR04’is single and strongly patterned cherry red, white-pink with a deep cherry eye, the flower of ‘Zora’ is semi-double and shell pink in color. The flowers of ‘Zora’ are smaller than the flowers of ‘WP11 TYR04’. In addition, the foliage of the ‘Zora’ is green in color, whereas the foliage of ‘WP11 TYR04’ is blue-green in color.
The identity of the male parent is unknown and therefore a comparison is not possible.
The variety of Dianthus which is considered by the inventor to most closely resemble ‘WP11 TYR04’ is the inventor's variety Dianthus ‘Starburst’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,162). The flowers of ‘Starburst’ have a similar blotching pattern on their petals, but the patterns and colors are different. ‘WP11 TYR04’ has a radiating pattern of white-pink on a background of cherry red with pronounced white stamens. ‘Starburst’ has a more subdued pattern of pink-white on a background of cherry red with distinctive pointed petals and the stamens are covered by the petals. Additionally the flowers of ‘Starburst’ are semi to fully double, while ‘WP11 TYR04’ bears single blooms with ruffled petal edges.
Asexual reproduction of ‘WP11 TYR04’ was first accomplished by the inventor in 2004 in a cultivated area of Houndspool, United Kingdom. The method of asexual propagation used was vegetative cuttings. The inventor has determined that ‘WP11 TYR04’ is stable and reproduces true to type in successive generations of asexual propagation.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and represent the characteristics of the new Dianthus cultivar ‘WP11 TYR04’. These traits in combination distinguish this cultivar from all other commercial varieties known to the inventor. ‘WP11 TYR04’ has not been tested under all possible conditions and phenotypic differences may be observed with variations in environmental, climatic and cultural conditions, however, without any variance in genotype.
    • 1. ‘WP11 TYR04’ exhibits a compact mounding habit.
    • 2. ‘WP11 TYR04’ bears single flowers that are cherry red with white-pink markings and a deep cherry eye.
    • 3. ‘WP11 TYR04’ exhibits petals that are deeply ruffled.
    • 4. ‘WP11 TYR04’ blooms from Mid-April through October.
    • 5. The flowers of ‘WP11 TYR04’ are moderately fragrant
    • 6. ‘WP11 TYR04’ exhibits glaucous, blue-green foliage.
    • 7. At maturity, the height of the foliage mound of ‘WP11 TYR04’ is 20 cm, and the width is 22 cm.
    • 8. ‘WP11 TYR04’ is perennial and is hardy at least to −15° C.
    • 9. ‘WP11 TYR04’ is suitable for use as a flowering plant in pots and containers.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The accompanying color drawings illustrate the overall appearance of the new Dianthus variety ‘WP11 TYR04’ showing colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the drawings may differ from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description, which accurately describe the actual colors of the new variety ‘WP11 TYR04’.
The drawing labeled as FIG. 1 depicts an entire flowering plant of ‘WP11 TYR04’.
The drawing labeled as FIG. 2 depicts a close-up view of the flower of ‘WP11 TYR04’.
All drawings were made from 9 months old plants which have been grown in 1.5-litre containers in a cold glasshouse in Devon, United Kingdom. No chemicals were used to treat the plants. All drawings were made using conventional techniques and although colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance they are as accurate as possible by conventional photography.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT
The following is a detailed description of the new cultivar ‘WP11 TYR04’. Data was collected from plants grown in 1.5-litre containers under an unheated glasshouse in Houndspool, United Kingdom in July. The color determinations are in accordance with the 2001 edition of The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. No chemicals were used to treat the plants. Growing conditions are typical to other Dianthus.
