Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Mandevilla plant named ‘QD20’, characterized by its compact and broadly upright plant habit; moderately vigorous growth habit; freely branching habit; dense and bushy appearance; dark green-colored leaves; freely flowering habit; and relatively large strong red-colored flowers with orangish red-colored throats that are held upright above the foliar plane.
Description
Botanical designation: Mandevilla sanderi.
Cultivar denomination: ‘QD20’.
An European Community Plant Breeder's Rights application for the instant plant was filed by the Applicant/Assignee of the instant application, Graff Breeding A/S of Sabro, Denmark on Nov. 26, 2021, application number 2021/3053. Foreign priority is not claimed to this European Plant Breeder's Rights 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 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.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Mandevilla plant, botanically known as Mandevilla sanderi and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘QD20’.
The new Mandevilla plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Sabro, Denmark. The objective of the breeding program is to create new compact and freely branching Mandevilla plants with numerous attractive flowers.
The new Mandevilla plant originated from a cross-pollination conducted by the Inventor in Sabro, Denmark in August, 2016 of a proprietary selection of Mandevilla sanderi identified as code number QD-0902, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Mandevilla sanderi identified as code number QD-0442, 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 Sabro, Denmark in May, 2017.
Asexual reproduction of the new Mandevilla plant by cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Sabro, Denmark, since September, 2019 has shown that the unique features of this new Mandevilla plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
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 ‘QD20’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘QD20’ as a new and distinct Mandevilla plant:
-
- 1. Compact and broadly upright plant habit.
- 2. Moderately vigorous growth habit.
- 3. Freely branching habit; dense and bushy appearance.
- 4. Dark green-colored leaves.
- 5. Freely flowering habit.
- 6. Relatively large strong red-colored flowers with reddish orange-colored throats that are held upright above the foliar plane.
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 strong red-colored flowers whereas plants of the female parent selection have soft pink-colored flowers.
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 leaf size as plants of the new Mandevilla have smaller leaves than plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Mandevilla can also be compared to plants of Mandevilla hybrida ‘Sunmanderemi’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,449. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Mandevilla differ primarily from plants ‘Sunmanderemi’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Mandevilla are more compact than and not as vigorous as plants of ‘Sunmanderemi’.
- 2. Plants of the new Mandevilla do not produce tendrils whereas plants of ‘Sunmanderemi’ produce tendrils.
- 3. Plants of the new Mandevilla have more rounded flowers than plants of ‘Sunmanderemi’.
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates 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 photograph 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 is a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘QD20’ grown in a container.
The aforementioned photograph and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown during the spring in 13-cm containers in a glass-covered greenhouse in Sabro, Denmark and under cultural practices typical of commercial Mandevilla production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 20° C. to 25° C., night temperatures ranged from 19° C. to 21° C. and light levels ranged from 40 klux to 50 klux. Plants were pinched two times and were 31 weeks old when the photograph and description were taken. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
