Description
Botanical designation: Hibiscus rosa-sinensis.
Cultivar denomination: ‘PASSION WIND’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct Hibiscus plant, botanically known as Hibiscus rosa-sinensis and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Passion Wind’.
The new Hibiscus plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Alva, Fla. The objective of the breeding program is to create new freely-branching Hibiscus plants with a dense, uniform and compact plant habit appropriate for container production, early and uniform flowering habit, numerous flowers per lateral branch, desirable flower color and good garden performance.
The new Hibiscus plant originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in Alva, Fla. in 2009 of a proprietary selection of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis identified as code number 2017, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis identified as code number 2691, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Hibiscus plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in Alva, Fla. on Jul. 16, 2012.
Asexual reproduction of the new Hibiscus plant by vegetative terminal cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Alva, Fla. since September, 2012 has shown that the unique features of this new Hibiscus plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the new Hibiscus 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 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 ‘Passion Wind’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Passion Wind’ as a new and distinct Hibiscus plant:
-
- 1. Semi-upright, uniformly mounded plant habit appropriate for container production.
- 2. Freely branching habit, dense and bushy appearance.
- 3. Glossy dark green-colored leaves.
- 4. Uniform and freely flowering habit.
- 5. Large red purple-colored flowers with dark red-colored centers.
- 6. Good postproduction and garden performance.
Plants of the new Hibiscus can be compared to plants of the female parent selection. Plants of the new Hibiscus differ primarily from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more uniform in plant habit than plants of the female parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more uniform in flowering habit than plants of the female parent selection.
- 3. Plants of the new Hibiscus and the female parent selection differ in flower color as plants of the female parent selection have darker red purple-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Hibiscus can be compared to plants of the male parent selection. Plants of the new Hibiscus differ primarily from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more freely flowering than plants of the male parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Hibiscus and the male parent selection differ in flower color as plants of the male parent selection have red-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Hibiscus can be compared to plants of the Hibiscus rosa-sinensis ‘Cayman Wind’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 23,760. In side-by-side comparisons plants of the new Hibiscus differ from plants of ‘Cayman Wind’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more compact in plant habit than plants of ‘Cayman Wind’.
- 2. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more freely branching than plants of ‘Cayman Wind’.
- 3. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more uniform in flowering habit than plants of ‘Cayman Wind’.
- 4. Plants of the new Hibiscus have slightly smaller flowers than plants of ‘Cayman Wind’.
- 5. Plants of the new Hibiscus and ‘Cayman Wind’ differ in flower color as plants of the new Hibiscus have red purple-colored flowers with dark red-colored centers whereas plants of ‘Cayman Wind’ have intense pink-colored flowers with dark red-colored centers.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Hibiscus 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 Hibiscus plant.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of typical flowering plants of ‘Passion Wind’ grown in a container.
The photograph on the second sheet comprises a close-up view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Passion Wind’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown during the summer in 20-cm containers in a polyethylene-covered greenhouse in Alva, Fla. and in an outdoor nursery in Fort Worth, Tex. under cultural practices which closely approximate commercial Hibiscus production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 21° C. to 35° C., night temperatures ranged from 12° C. to 21° C. and light levels ranged from 5,000 to 8,000 foot-candles. Plants were pinched three times and were ten months old when the photographs and the description were taken. In the description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2007 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
