Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Poinsettia plant named ‘PER1295’, characterized by its uniform, upright and mounded plant habit; moderately vigorous growth habit; freely and upright branching habit; very dark green-colored leaves; early flowering response; large inflorescences with crimson-colored flower bracts; and good post-production longevity.

Description

Botanical designation: Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd.
Cultivar denomination: ‘PER1295’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Poinsettia plant, botanically known as Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd., and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘PER1295’.
The new Poinsettia plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Lompoc, Calif. The objective of the breeding program is to create new compact Poinsettia plants with dark green-colored leaves, large inflorescences with dark red-colored flower bracts, early flowering response, good cyathia retention and excellent post-production longevity.
The new Poinsettia plant originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in December, 2004 of a proprietary selection of Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. identified as code number 03-149-4, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent, with a proprietary selection of Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. identified as code number 04-277-1, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Poinsettia 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 Lompoc, Calif. in December, 2005.
Asexual reproduction of the new Poinsettia plant by terminal vegetative cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Lompoc, Calif. since July, 2006 has shown that the unique features of this new Poinsettia plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the new Poinsettia have not been observed under all possible combinations of environmental conditions and cultural practices. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environmental conditions such as temperature, daylength 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 ‘PER1295’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘PER1295’ as a new and distinct Poinsettia plant:
    • 1. Uniform, upright and mounded plant habit.
    • 2. Moderately vigorous growth habit.
    • 3. Freely and upright branching habit.
    • 4. Very dark green-colored leaves.
    • 5. Early flowering response; under natural season conditions, plants flower in mid-November in Southern California.
    • 6. Large inflorescences with crimson-colored flower bracts.
    • 7. Good post-production longevity.
In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Lompoc, Calif., plants of the new Poinsettia differ primarily from plants of the female parent selection in flower bract shape and size as plants of the new Poinsettia have broader flower bracts than plants of the female parent selection. In addition, plants of the female parent selection shed pollen one week later than plants of the new Poinsettia.
In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Lompoc, Calif., plants of the new Poinsettia differ primarily from plants of the male parent selection in plant size as plants of the new Poinsettia are more compact than plants of the male parent selection. In addition, plants of the new Poinsettia had larger cyathia than plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Poinsettia can be compared to plants of the Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ‘Eckadire’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,846. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Lompoc, Calif., plants of the new Poinsettia differed primarily from plants of ‘Eckadire’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Poinsettia was not as vigorous as plants of ‘Eckadire’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Poinsettia had darker green-colored leaves than plants of ‘Eckadire’.
    • 3. Plants of the new Poinsettia had darker red-colored flower bracts than plants of ‘Eckadire’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Poinsettia 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 Poinsettia plant.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘PER1295’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the top of the sheet is a close-up view of a typical flowering plant of ‘PER1295’.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
Plants used in the aforementioned photographs and in the following detailed description were grown during the late autumn/early winter in 16.5-cm containers in a polyethylene-covered greenhouse in Encinitas, Calif. and under natural season conditions and cultural practices typical of commercial Poinsettia production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures averaged 24° C., night temperatures averaged 18° C. and light levels averaged 5,000 foot-candles. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for typical flowering plants. Plants were pinched one time and were 17 weeks old when the photographs and the 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.
