Abstract
A new cultivar of Dianthus plant named ‘WP15 PIE41’ that is characterized by a compact mounding habit, large single white flowers with a lime-colored eye, blooming from May through October, with a medium, sweet fragrance, glaucous blue green foliage, suitable for use as a flowering plant in pots and containers as well as for use as a cut flower and in bouquets, is disclosed.
Description
Genus and species: Dianthus x allwoodii hort.
Variety denomination: ‘WP15 PIE41’.
This application claims the benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C. 119 (f) to the application for European Community Plant Variety Rights which was filed for the instant plant variety on Apr. 15, 2016, File Number 2016/0940.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of hardy Dianthus, commonly known as Garden Pink, but selected for its unique large single flowers. The new cultivar can be 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 x allwoodii hort. and will be referred to hereinafter by the cultivar name ‘WP15 PIE41’.
‘WP15 PIE41’ is a complex hybrid plant that is the product of a long term breeding program conducted in a cultivated area of Houndspool, Dawlish, Devon, United Kingdom. ‘WP15 PIE41’ was selected in 2008 for its single large flowers with a lime-colored eye, medium, sweet fragrance and glaucous blue-green foliage.
‘WP15 PIE41’ arose and was selected as a seedling which resulted from the open pollination of a prior selected Dianthus. The female parent is Dianthus code name ‘PIE.017’ (unpatented and unreleased). The female parent is grown within the inventor's stock of breeding lines.
Asexual reproduction of ‘WP15 PIE41’ was first accomplished in 2008 in a cultivated area of Houndspool, United Kingdom using the propagation method of shoot cuttings. ‘WP15 PIE41’ has been determined to be stable and reproduces true to type in successive generations of asexual propagation.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and represent the characteristics of the new Dianthus cultivar ‘WP15 PIE41’. ‘WP15 PIE41’ 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. ‘WP15 PIE41’ exhibits a compact mounding habit.
- 2. ‘WP15 PIE41’ bears single white flowers with a lime-colored eye.
- 3. The petals of ‘WP15 PIE41’ are flat.
- 4. ‘WP15 PIE41’ blooms from May through October.
- 5. The flowers of ‘WP15 PIE41’ exhibit a medium, sweet fragrance.
- 6. ‘WP15 PIE41’ exhibits glaucous blue green foliage.
- 7. At maturity, the height of the foliage mound of ‘WP15 PIE41’ is about 35 cm, and the width is about 20 cm.
- 8. ‘WP15 PIE41’ is perennial and is hardy at least to minus 15° Centigrade.
- 9. ‘WP15 PIE41’ is suitable for use as a flowering plant in pots and containers, and for use as a cut flower and in bouquets.
The accompanying color photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Dianthus variety ‘WP15 PIE41’ showing colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description, which accurately describe the actual colors of the new variety ‘WP15 PIE41’.
Photographs were taken from a 9 months old plant which was growing in a glasshouse in a 3-liter container at the Inventor's nursery in Dawlish, Devon, United Kingdom. No chemicals were used to treat the plants.
All photographs 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.
The following is a detailed description of the new cultivar ‘WP15 PIE41’. Data was collected from plants grown in 3-liter containers under an unheated glasshouse in Houndspool, Dawlish, United Kingdom. The color determinations are in accordance with the sixth edition (2015) 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.

‘WP15 PIE41’ is distinguishable from the female parent as follows. ‘WP15 PIE41’ has much shorter flower stems than its female parent and a much more compact plant habit. In addition, the color of the petals of the female parent ‘PIE.017’ is a white with a cream-pink band.
The variety of Dianthus considered to most closely resemble ‘WP15 PIE41’ is the inventor's variety Dianthus ‘WP15 PIE45’(co-pending U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 15/731,061). In comparison with ‘WP15 PIE45’, ‘WP15 PIE41’ has slightly shorter stems and different flower color. Whereas the flowers of ‘WP15 PIE41’ are white with a lime-colored eye, the flowers of ‘WP15 PIE45’ are light peach in color with a darker peach band, the two colors being separated by a prominent red-orange line. In addition, the petal margins of ‘WP15 PIE45’ are more prominently indented.
