Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Mandevilla plant named ‘Sunpa 0931’, characterized by its upright to outwardly spreading plant habit; vigorous growth habit; freely branching habit; early and freely flowering habit; long flowering period; and medium-sized yellow-colored flowers with orange-colored centers.

Description

Botanical designation: Mandevilla hybrida.
Cultivar denomination: ‘SUNPA 0931’.
STATEMENT REGARDING PRIOR DISCLOSURES BY THE INVENTOR/APPLICANT & ASSIGNEE
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 Assignee. Inventor/Applicant and Assignee claim a prior art exception 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 Mandevilla plant, botanically known as Mandevilla hybrida and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Sunpa 0931’.
The new Mandevilla plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan. The objective of the breeding program is to create new upright and freely branching Mandevilla plants with freely flowering habit and attractive flowers.
The new Mandevilla plant originated from a cross-pollination conducted by the Inventor in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan in May, 2015 of a proprietary selection of Mandevilla hybrida identified as code number 13M267-1, not patented, as the female, or seed parent with a proprietary selection of Mandevilla hybrida identified as code number 13M274-1, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Mandevilla plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant from within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan in September, 2016.
Asexual reproduction of the new Mandevilla plant by terminal vegetative cuttings in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan since March, 2017 has shown that the unique features of this new Mandevilla plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the new Mandevilla 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 ‘Sunpa 0931’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Sunpa 0931’ as a new and distinct Mandevilla plant:
    • 1. Upright to outwardly spreading plant habit.
    • 2. Vigorous growth habit.
    • 3. Freely branching habit.
    • 4. Early and freely flowering habit.
    • 5. Long flowering period.
    • 6. Medium-sized yellow-colored flowers with orange-colored centers.
Plants of the new Mandevilla can be compared to plants of the female parent selection. Plants of the new Mandevilla differ primarily from plants of the female parent selection in flower color as plants of the new Mandevilla have darker yellow-colored flowers than plants of the female parent selection. In addition, plants of the new Mandevilla have larger flowers than plants of the female parent selection.
Plants of the new Mandevilla can be compared to plants of the male parent selection. Plants of the new Mandevilla differ primarily from plants of the male parent selection in flower color as plants of the new Mandevilla have brighter yellow-colored flowers than plants of the male parent selection. In addition, plants of the new Mandevilla have larger flowers than plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Mandevilla can be compared to plants of the Mandevilla hybrida ‘Sunpa 2671’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 31,661. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Mandevilla differ from plants of ‘Sunpa 2671’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Mandevilla have shorter internodes than plants of ‘Sunpa 2671’.
    • 2. Leaves of plants of the new Mandevilla are decussate whereas leaves of plants of ‘Sunpa 2671’ are opposite.
    • 3. Leaves and leaf petioles of plants of the new Mandevilla are darker green in color than leaves and leaf petioles of plants of ‘Sunpa 2671’.
    • 4. Petals of plants of the new Mandevilla are not imbricate whereas petals of plants of ‘Sunpa 2671’ are imbricate.
    • 5. Plants of the new Mandevilla have shorter peduncles than plants of ‘Sunpa 2671’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Mandevilla 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 actual colors of the new Mandevilla plant.
The photograph at the top of the sheet (FIG. 1) is a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Sunpa 0931’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet (FIG. 2) is a close-up view of a typical flower of ‘Sunpa 0931’.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The aforementioned photographs and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown during the late summer in 18-cm containers in an outdoor nursery in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan and under cultural practices typical of commercial Mandevilla production.
