Abstract
A new and distinct plant of Echeveria hybrida named ‘Angel Kissed’ is disclosed, characterized by a low growing morphology and an overall pink blush to the rosette. Plants are compact and grow robustly. Foliage grows in a very concentric formation and is colored greyed-green, overlaid with a pink blush and each leaf margined in pink and having a bright pink apical tip. Echeveria is a popular genus, typically produced as container plants for the patio or as landscape plants.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Echeveria hybrida.
Variety denomination: ‘ANGEL KISSED’.
The new cultivar, Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’, is the product of a planned breeding program by the inventor. The new variety was selected as a seedling from an open pollination program. The open-pollination resulting in the new variety was made between 2012 and 2014 at a commercial nursery in Vista, Calif. The seed parent is the unpatented Echeveria hybrida cultivar known as ‘Lola’. The pollen parent is unknown. The discovery was made during April of 2016, in Vista, Calif., at a commercial greenhouse.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘Angel Kissed’ was first performed in Vista, Calif., at a commercial greenhouse, by vegetative offsets in May of 2016. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ has since produced at least 11 generations and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type.
The cultivar ‘Angel Kissed’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, day length, 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 ‘ANGEL KISSED’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘ANGEL KISSED’ as a new and distinct Echeveria cultivar:
- 1. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ is a compact Echeveria with a lower growing morphology, characterized by an overall pink blush.
- 2. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ displays a very concentric formation of leaves that are greyed-green overlaid with a pink blush, each leaf margined in pink and terminating with a pink apical tip.
- 3. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ is a strong and robust grower.
- 4. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’, due to its pink coloration, is an excellent choice as an accent to other Echeverias in blue and green hues when mixed in commercial trays, or used as an accent plant in the commercially popular succulent mixed plantings or succulent gardens, particularly in contrast with succulents with orange or yellow foliage.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘Angel Kissed’ are similar to plants of the parent in most horticultural characteristics. However, plants of the new cultivar ‘Angel Kissed’ differ in the following:
- 1. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ forms rosettes that are lower in morphology than those of Echeveria ‘Lola’.
- 2. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ exhibits a rosette color of greyed-green overlaid with a pink blush, whereas the rosette of Echeveria ‘Lola’ is a pale alabaster color, blushed with violet during times of stress.
- 3. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ displays leaves margined in pink, terminating apically with pink, whereas Echeveria ‘Lola’ exhibits leaves with hyaline margins.
- 4. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ is a robust grower, with fewer cultivation problems as found in Echeveria ‘Lola’.
The new cultivar ‘Angel Kissed’ can be compared to the commercial variety Echeveria ‘Pink Diamond’, U.S. application Ser. No. 17/130,625. Plants of the new cultivar ‘Angel Kissed’ differ in the following:
- 1. While both varieties are compact, Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ is lower growing than ‘Pink Diamond’.
- 2. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ does not have the hyaline margins found on ‘Pink Diamond’.
- 3. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ produces leaves that are less blunt at the apex.
The new cultivar ‘Angel Kissed’ can be compared to the unpatented Echeveria ‘Perle von Nurnberg’. Plants of the new cultivar ‘Angel Kissed’ are similar to Echeveria ‘Perle von Nurnberg’ in most horticultural characteristics. However, plants of the new cultivar ‘Angel Kissed’ differ in the following:
- 1. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ forms nearly stemless rosettes of a low morpholgy, whereas Echeveria ‘Perle von Nurnberg’ produces rosettes with more stem growth, eventually resulting in a more shrublike Echeveria.
- 2. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ has a somewhat slower growth rate than does Echeveria ‘Perle von Nurnberg’.
- 3. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ exhibits bright pink margins and apical tip, whereas Echeveria ‘Perle von Nurnberg’ displays a nearly monotone colored rosette.
- 4. Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’ exhibits resistance to the fungi Rhizoctonia, whereas Echeveria ‘Perle von Nurnberg’ can be subject to attack by the fungi Rhizoctonia, often leading to demise.
The photographs were taken using conventional techniques and equipment. While the colors in these photographs may display variances of color as compared to the living cultivar, due to LRV (light reflectance value), they are as accurate as possible using conventional photographic techniques. Colors in the photographs may appear to differ slightly from the color values cited in the botanical description, which accurately describe the colors of new Echeveria ‘Angel Kissed’. Plants photographed are approximately 5 months from a rooted cutting.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2007, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe ‘Angel Kissed’ plants in a commercial greenhouse in Vista, Calif. Temperatures ranged from 2° C. to 38° C. night and day. No artificial light, photoperiodic treatments or chemical treatments were given to the plants. Natural light conditions were approximately 2500 fc of light. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical plant types.
