Description

Botanical designation: Phalaenopsis hybrida.
Cultivar denomination: ‘MI01526’.
STATEMENT REGARDING PRIOR DISCLOSURES BY INVENTOR/APPLICANT
An European Community Plant Breeder's Rights application for the instant plant was filed by the Assignee of the instant application, Microflor N.V. of Lochristi, Belgium on Apr. 27, 2020, application number 2020/1126. Foreign priority is not claimed to this application.
The Inventor/Applicant and Assignee assert that no publications nor advertisements relating to sales, offers for sale or public distribution occurred more than one year prior to the effective filing date of this application. Any information about the claimed plant would have been obtained from a direct or indirect disclosure from the Inventor/Applicant and/or the Assignee. Inventor/Applicant and Assignee claim a prior art exemption under 35 U.S.C. 102(b)(1) for disclosure and/or sales prior to the filing date but less than one year prior to the effective filing date.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Phalaenopsis plant, botanically known as Phalaenopsis hybrida, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘MI01526’.
The new Phalaenopsis plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Lochristi, Belgium. The objective of the breeding program is to develop new freely flowering Phalaenopsis plants with good leaf shape and flowers with unique and attractive flower coloration.
The new Phalaenopsis plant originated from a cross-pollination by the Inventor in July, 2013 in Lochristi, Belgium of a proprietary selection of Phalaenopsis hybrida identified as code number PHM00322, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Phalaenopsis hybrida identified as code number PHM00313, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Phalaenopsis plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant from within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination grown in a controlled greenhouse environment in Lochristi, Belgium in February, 2016.
Asexual reproduction of the new Phalaenopsis plant by in vitro meristem propagation in a controlled environment in Lochristi, Belgium since June, 2017 has shown that the unique features of this new Phalaenopsis plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the new Phalaenopsis 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 ‘MI01526’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘MI01526’ as a new and distinct Phalaenopsis plant:
    • 1. Upright plant habit.
    • 2. Vigorous growth habit.
    • 3. Strong flowering stems.
    • 4. Strong and relatively small leaves.
    • 5. Freely flowering habit with typically two inflorescences per plant, each inflorescence with numerous flowers.
    • 6. Light yellow green-colored flowers with red purple-colored centers and labella.
    • 7. Good postproduction longevity and resistance to bud drop during transport.
Plants of the new Phalaenopsis can be compared to plants of the female parent selection. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis differ primarily from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis are more vigorous than plants of the female parent selection.
    • 2. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis have larger flowers than plants of the female parent selection.
    • 3. Flowers of plants of the new Phalaenopsis are light yellow green in color with red purple-colored centers and labella whereas flowers of plants of the female parent selection are yellow in color with purple-colored spots.
Plants of the new Phalaenopsis can be compared to plants of the male parent selection. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis differ primarily from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis have slightly smaller flowers than plants of the male parent selection.
    • 2. Flowers of plants of the new Phalaenopsis are light yellow green in color with red purple-colored centers and labella whereas flowers of plants of the male parent selection are white in color with yellow-colored centers and labella.
Plants of the new Phalaenopsis can be compared to plants of Phalaenopsis hybrida ‘Rommé’, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Phalaenopsis differ primarily from plants of ‘Rommé’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis have smaller inflorescences than plants of ‘Rommé’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis have inflorescences that are typically panicles and occasionally racemes whereas plants of ‘Rommé’ have inflorescences that are typically racemes.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Phalaenopsis 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 Phalaenopsis plant.
The photograph on the first sheet (FIG. 1) is a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘MI01526’ grown in a container.
The photograph on the second sheet (FIG. 2) is a close-up view of a typical flower of ‘MI01526’.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown during the late summer in 12-cm containers in a glass-covered greenhouse in Lochristi, Belgium and under cultural practices typically used in commercial Phalaenopsis production.
