Abstract
A new cultivar of Hibiscus named ‘Langila’ that is characterized by its large uniform flowers that are yellow in color with pink centers, its floriferous bloom habit with flowers that stay open for 2 to 3 days, its early blooming and freely flowering habit, its vigorous growth habit, its upright, medium sized, uniform, well-branched and compact plant habit, and its foliage that is resistant to pathogens common to hibiscus, including Pseudomonas sp., Phythium sp., and Phytophthora sp.
Description
Botanical classification: Hibiscus rosa-sinensis.
Cultivar designation: ‘Langila’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis named ‘Langila’ and will be referred to hereafter by its cultivar name, ‘Langila’. ‘Langila’ is a new cultivar of tropical hibiscus grown for use as a landscape and container plant.
The new cultivar was developed through an ongoing breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Malause, France. The objectives of the breeding program are to develop new cultivars of Hibiscus that exhibit large and brightly colored flowers, self-branching, high flower bud counts, and compact plant habits.
‘Langila’ arose from a cross made by the Inventor in July of 2009 between unnamed plants of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis from the breeding program, reference no. si 679-8 (not patented) as the female parent and reference no. si 6433-2 (not patented) as the male parent. ‘Langila’ was selected as a single unique plant from the resulting seedlings in September of 2013.
Asexual propagation of the new cultivar was first accomplished by stem cuttings in Malause, France in June of 2012 by the Inventor. Asexual propagation by stem cuttings has determined that the characteristics of the new cultivar are stable and are reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and represent the characteristics the new cultivar. These attributes in combination distinguish ‘Langila’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Hibiscus.
-
- 1. ‘Langila’ exhibits large uniform flowers that are yellow in color with pink centers.
- 2. ‘Langila’ exhibits a floriferous bloom habit with flowers that stay open for 2 to 3 days.
- 3. ‘Langila’ exhibits an early blooming and freely flowering habit.
- 4. ‘Langila’ exhibits a vigorous growth habit.
- 5. ‘Langila’ exhibits an upright, medium sized, uniform, well-branched and compact plant habit.
- 6. ‘Langila’ exhibits foliage that is resistant to pathogens common to Hibiscus, including Pseudomonas sp., Phythium sp., and Phytophthora sp.
The female parent of ‘Langila’ differs from ‘Langila’ in having flowers that are smaller in size and solid yellow in color and in having a lower flower bud count. The male parent of ‘Langila’ differs from ‘Langila’ in having much smaller flowers that are red in color and in having leaves that are lighter green in color. ‘Langila’ can be most closely compared to the Hibiscus cultivars ‘Lemonade’ (not patented) and ‘President's Red’ (not patented). ‘Lemonade’ is similar to ‘Langila’ in having flowers that are yellow with a pink eye in color and in having an upright well-branched plant habit. ‘Lemonade’ differs from ‘Langila’ in being less floriferous and in having flowers that are larger with a larger center that is not as true pink and petal margins that are more ruffled. ‘President's Red’ is similar to ‘Langila’ in having a floriferous blooming habit and similar foliage color. ‘President's Red’ differs from ‘Langila’ in having smaller flowers that are red in color and in having a less vigorous growth habit.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance and distinct characteristics of the new Hibiscus. The photographs were taken of 18 month-old plants of ‘Langila’ as grown in a two-gallon container.
The photograph in FIG. 1 provides a side-view of ‘Langila’ in bloom.
The photograph in FIG. 2 provides a close-up view of a flower of ‘Langila’.
The colors in the photographs are as close as possible with the photographic and printing technology utilized and the color values cited in the Detailed Botanical Description accurately describe the colors of the new Hibiscus.
The following is a detailed description of 18 month-old plants of the new cultivar as grown in two-gallon containers in a greenhouse in Grand Saline, Tex. The phenotype of the new cultivar may vary with variations in environmental, climatic, and cultural conditions, as it has not been tested under all possible environmental conditions. The color determination is in accordance with The 2015 R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
