Abstract
A new and distinct variety of Phalaenopsis plant named ‘PHALFOTJ’, particularly characterized by having reddish-purple flowers with reddish-purple lips, 1 to 2 peduncles that are medium long and sturdy, leaves that are oblong, and is propagated by meristem tissue culture, is disclosed.
Description
Genus and species: Phalaenopsis hybrid.
Variety denomination: ‘PHALFOTJ’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Phalaenopsis plant, botanically known as Phalaenopsis hybrid of the Orchidaceae family, commonly referred to as moth orchid, and hereinafter referred to by the variety name ‘PHALFOTJ’.
The new Phalaenopsis plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor in Bleiswijk, the Netherlands. The objective of this breeding program was to create a new Phalaenopsis plant with numerous attractive reddish-purple flowers with reddish-purple lips, suitable for potted plant production.
The new Phalaenopsis plant ‘PHALFOTJ’ is a result of cross-pollination made by the inventor in November 2007 in Bleiswijk, the Netherlands, of the proprietary female, or seed parent, Phalaenopsis hybrid ‘01-1698’ (unpatented) with the proprietary male, or pollen parent, Phalaenopsis hybrid ‘20421-01’ (unpatented).
The new Phalaenopsis was selected by the inventor as a single plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse in Bleiswijk, the Netherlands, in November 2010. Asexual reproduction of the new Phalaenopsis plant by meristem tissue culture since 2013 in Bleiswijk, the Netherlands, has demonstrated that the new variety reproduces true to type with all of the characteristics, as herein described, firmly fixed and retained through successive generations.
Plant Breeder's Rights for this variety have been applied for in Europe on Apr. 24, 2018, by Applicant who obtained the subject matter disclosed directly from the Inventor. ‘PHALFOTJ’ has not been made publicly available or sold anywhere in the world more than one year prior to the effective filing date of this application.
The following are the most outstanding and distinguishing characteristics of this new cultivar when grown under normal horticultural practices in Bleiswijk, the Netherlands, and can be used to distinguish ‘PHALFOTJ’ as a new and distinct variety of Phalaenopsis plant:
-
- 1) Reddish-purple flowers with reddish-purple lips;
- 2) 1 to 2 peduncles;
- 3) Peduncle is medium long and sturdy; and
- 4) Shape of the leaf is oblong.
This new Phalaenopsis plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographs which show the overall plant habit including blooms, buds, and foliage of the plant; the colors shown are as true as can be reasonably obtained by conventional photographic procedures. The photographs were taken in a greenhouse in Bleiswijk, the Netherlands, from 46-week-old plants in February 2019. 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.
The following detailed description sets forth the distinctive characteristics of ‘PHALFOTJ’. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity and day length, without, however, any variance in genotype. The chart used in the identification of colors described herein is The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England, 2015 edition, except where general color terms of ordinary significance are used. The color values were determined under 4000-6000 lux natural light in a greenhouse in Bleiswijk, the Netherlands. Observations and measurements were made in February 2019 on flowering plants which were planted in 9-centimeter (diameter) pots. After in-vitro propagation, the plants were grown in nursery trays for 18-20 weeks, followed by transplantation to 9-centimeter pots and grown in a greenhouse between 27° C. to 29° C. for 25 weeks, continued by a cooling period of 6 weeks between 18° C. to 20° C. and 11 weeks in a greenhouse of 21° C. Flowering occurs after 42 weeks in 9-centimeter pots.

The female parent of ‘PHALFOTJ’, cultivar ‘01-1698’ (unpatented), is no longer in existence, therefore a meaningful comparison cannot be made.
‘PHALFOTJ’ differs from male parent plant ‘20421-01’ (unpatented) in that ‘PHALFOTJ’ has rhombic apical lobes and weakly spatulate lateral lobes, whereas ‘20421-01’ has triangular apical lobes and spatulate lateral lobes. Additionally, ‘PHALFOTJ’ has smaller flowers, narrower apical lobes, and shorter whiskers than ‘20421-01’.
‘PHALFOTJ’ is most similar to the commercial Phalaenopsis plants named ‘PHALBOCIQ’ (unpatented) and ‘CHUNLI’ (unpatented). ‘PHALFOTJ’ differs from the commercial variety ‘PHALBOCIQ’ in that ‘PHALFOTJ’ has rhombic apical lobes, weakly spatulate lateral lobes, and a shaded flower pattern, whereas ‘PHALBOCIQ’ has triangular apical lobes, spatulate lateral lobes, and a center flower pattern. Additionally, ‘PHALFOTJ’ has shorter whiskers and smaller flowers than ‘PHALBOCIQ’.
‘PHALFOTJ’ differs from the commercial variety ‘CHUNLI’ in that ‘PHALFOTJ’ has rhombic apical lobes and a shaded flower pattern, whereas ‘CHUNLI’ has ovate apical lobes and a striped flower pattern. Additionally, ‘PHALFOTJ’ has longer whiskers and larger flowers than ‘CHUNLI’.
