Abstract
A new and distinct Guzmania cultivar named ‘DURAJUL’ is disclosed, characterized by very wide flower of unusual pink and purple coloration. The new variety is an Guzmania, typically produced as an indoor ornamental plant.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Guzmania hybrid.
Variety denomination: ‘DURAJUL’.
The new cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program. The objective of the planned breeding program was to develop new Guzmania varieties for commercial ornamental purposes. The new variety originated from a cross pollination of an unnamed, unpatented proprietary Guzmania hybrid seed parent with an unnamed, unpatented, Guzmania lingulata as the pollen parent. The crossing was made during 2007 in a commercial greenhouse in Alajuela, Costa Rica.
The new variety was discovered by the inventor, Chester Skotak jr., a citizen of Costa Rica, in January of 2009 in a group of seedlings resulting from the crossing. The new cultivar was found in a commercial greenhouse in Alajuela, Costa Rica.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘DURAJUL’ was first performed at a commercial laboratory in Belgium by tissue culture during September, 2010. Subsequent propagation by tissue culture has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type.
The cultivar ‘DURAJUL’ 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 ‘DURAJUL.’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘DURAJUL’ as a new and distinct Guzmania cultivar:
-
- 1. Unusual pink and purple flower coloration.
- 2. Very wide inflorescence.
- 3. Greyed-Purple anthocyanin coloration of foliage.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DURAJUL’ are similar to seed parent in most horticultural characteristics. The new variety however differs in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. More compact plant.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DURAJUL’ are similar to the pollen parent, in most horticultural characteristics. The new variety however differs in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Larger plant size.
‘DURAJUL’ can be compared to the commercial variety of Guzmania know as ‘Freya’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,461. Plants of Guzmania ‘Freya’ are similar to plants of ‘DURAJUL’ in most horticultural characteristics. However ‘DURAJUL’ differs from Guzmania in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Pink and purple flowers. The comparator has purple flowers
- 2. Much more anthocyanin coloration of the underside of the leaves.
‘DURAJUL’ can be compared to the commercial variety of Guzmania know as ‘Viola’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 13,679. Plants of Guzmania ‘Viola’ are similar to plants of ‘DURAJUL’ in most horticultural characteristics. However ‘DURAJUL’ differs from Guzmania in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Darker flower color.
- 2. Darker green leaves.
- 3. Larger plant size.
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘DURAJUL’ grown in a greenhouse in Belgium. This plant is approximately 20 months old, shown in an 12 cm. pot.
The photograph was 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.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart 2001, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe ‘DURAJUL’ plants grown in a climate controlled greenhouse in Evergem, Belgium. Temperatures ranged from 18° C. to 22° C. at night to 20° C. to 28° C. during the day. No artificial light, photoperiodic or chemical treatments were given to the plants.
