Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Dianthus plant named ‘Sunnade Pintatsu’, characterized by its upright, outwardly spreading and mounding plant habit; vigorous growth habit; freely branching habit; freely flowering habit; and large single flowers with vivid red purple-colored fringed petals; flowers positioned above and beyond the foliar plane on strong peduncles.

Description

Botanical designation: Dianthus×hybrida.
Cultivar denomination: ‘SUNNADE PINTATSU’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Dianthus plant, botanically known as Dianthus×hybrida, typically grown commercially as a potted plant and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Sunnade Pintatsu’.
The new Dianthus plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan. The objective of the breeding program was to develop new freely branching Dianthus plants with large and attractive flowers.
The new Dianthus plant originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan in January, of a proprietary selection of Dianthus×hybrida identified as code number DI652-01, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Dianthus×hybrida identified as code number DI632-01, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Dianthus 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 greenhouse environment in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan in February, 2010.
Asexual reproduction of the new Dianthus plant by terminal cuttings propagated in a controlled greenhouse environment in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan since February, 2010 has shown that the unique features of this new Dianthus plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the new Dianthus 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 ‘Sunnade Pintatsu’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Sunnade Pintatsu’ as a new and distinct Dianthus plant:
    • 1. Upright, outwardly spreading and mounding plant habit.
    • 2. Vigorous growth habit.
    • 3. Freely branching habit.
    • 4. Freely flowering habit.
    • 5. Large single flowers with vivid red purple-colored fringed petals; flowers positioned above and beyond the foliar plane on strong peduncles.
Plants of the new Dianthus differ primarily from plants of the female parent selection in flower size as plants of the new Dianthus have larger flowers than plants of the female parent selection.
Plants of the new Dianthus differ primarily from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Dianthus are more freely branching than plants of the male parent selection.
    • 2. Plants of the new Dianthus have larger flowers than plants of the male parent selection.
    • 3. Flowers of plants of the new Dianthus and the male parent selection differ in flower color as plants of the male parent selection have red-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Dianthus can be compared to plants of the Dianthus ‘Kahori’, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan, plants of the new Dianthus differed from plants of ‘Kahori’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Dianthus were larger than plants of ‘Kahori’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Dianthus had thicker stems than plants of ‘Kahori’.
    • 3. Plants of the new Dianthus had larger leaves than plants of ‘Kahori’.
    • 4. Plants of the new Dianthus had larger flowers than plants of ‘Kahori’.
    • 5. Plants of the new Dianthus and ‘Kahori’ differed slightly in flower color.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Dianthus 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 Dianthus plant.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical plant of ‘Sunnade Pintatsu’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet is a close-up view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Sunnade Pintatsu’.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
Plants used in the aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown during the winter in 15-cm containers in an outdoor nursery in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan and under cultural practices typical of commercial Dianthus production. During the production of the plants day temperatures ranged from 12° C. to 20° C. and night temperatures ranged from 10° C. to 12° C. Plants were seven months old when the photographs and the detailed 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.
