Abstract
A new and distinct Petunia plant named ‘WNPESVJAZ’, characterized by its upright to outwardly spreading and mounding to eventually trailing plant habit; vigorous growth habit and rapid growth rate; freely branching habit; dense and bushy plant form; early and freely flowering habit; single-type flowers that are vivid reddish purple in color; and excellent garden performance.
Description
Botanical designation: Petunia X hybrida.
Cultivar Denomination: ‘WNPESVJAZ’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Petunia plant, botanically known as Petunia X hybrida and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘WNPESVJAZ’.
The new Petunia plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Bonsall, Calif. The objective of the breeding program is to create new vigorous, freely-branching and uniformly mounding Petunia plants with early and freely flowering habit, attractive flowers and good garden performance.
The new Petunia plant originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor on Feb. 12, 2018 in Bonsall, Calif. of a proprietary selection of Petunia X hybrida identified as code number 15PB559-04, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Petunia X hybrida identified as code number 15PB626-01, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Petunia 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 Bonsall, Calif. on Aug. 2, 2018.
Asexual reproduction of the new Petunia plant by vegetative terminal cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Bonsall, Calif. since Aug. 6, 2018 has shown that the unique features of this new Petunia plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the new Petunia 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 ‘WNPESVJAZ’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘WNPESVJAZ’ as a new and distinct Petunia plant:
-
- 1. Upright to outwardly spreading and mounding to eventually trailing plant habit.
- 2. Vigorous growth habit and rapid growth rate.
- 3. Freely branching habit; dense and bushy plant form.
- 4. Early and freely flowering habit.
- 5. Single-type flowers that are vivid reddish purple in color.
- 6. Excellent garden performance.
Plants of the new Petunia can be compared to plants of the female parent selection. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Petunia differ primarily from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Petunia are more mounding than and not as spreading as plants of the female parent selection.
- 2. Leaves of plants of the new Petunia are narrower and darker green in color than leaves of plants of the female parent selection.
- 3. Plants of the new Petunia have smaller flowers than plants of the female parent selection.
- 4. Flowers of plants of the new Petunia are darker reddish purple in color than flowers of plants of the female parent selection.
Plants of the new Petunia can be compared to plants of the male parent selection. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Petunia differ primarily from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Petunia are more outwardly spreading than and not as upright as plants of the male parent selection.
- 2. Leaves of plants of the new Petunia are broader and darker green in color than leaves of plants of the male parent selection.
- 3. Plants of the new Petunia have larger flowers than plants of the male parent selection.
- 4. Flowers of plants of the new Petunia are darker reddish purple in color than flowers of plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Petunia can be compared to plants of Petunia X hybrida ‘USTUNI6001’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 17,730. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Petunia differ primarily from plants of ‘USTUNI6001’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Petunia are more outwardly spreading than and not as upright as plants of ‘USTUNI6001’.
- 2. Plants of the new Petunia have slightly smaller flowers than plants of ‘USTUNI6001’.
- 3. Plants of the new Petunia have vivid reddish purple- colored flowers whereas plants of ‘USTUNI6001’ have bright pink-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Petunia can also be compared to plants of Petunia X hybrida ‘USTUN2401M’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 29,664. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Petunia differ primarily from plants of ‘USTUN2401M’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Petunia are larger than and not as compact as plants of ‘USTUN2401M’.
- 2. Plants of the new Petunia have slightly larger flowers than plants of ‘USTUN2401M’.
- 3. Plants of the new Petunia have vivid reddish purple-colored flowers whereas plants of ‘USTUN2401M’ have hot pink-colored flowers.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Petunia 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 Petunia plant.
The photograph on the first sheet (FIG. 1 ) is a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘WNPESVJAZ’ grown in a container.
The photograph on the second sheet (FIG. 2 ) is a close-up view of a typical flowering plant of ‘WNPESVJAZ’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown during the late summer and early autumn in 10.8-cm containers in a corrugated polycarbonate-covered greenhouse in Carlton, Mich. and under cultural practices typical of commercial Petunia production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures averaged 26° C., night temperatures averaged 20° C. and light levels averaged 9,290 footcandles. Plants were pinched three weeks after planting and were ten weeks from planting rooted cuttings when the photographs and description were taken. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2015 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
