Description

Botanical designation: Phalaenopsis hybrida.
Cultivar denomination: ‘MI01930’.
STATEMENT REGARDING PRIOR DISCLOSURES BY INVENTOR/APPLICANT & ASSIGNEE
An European Union Plant Breeder's Rights application for the instant plant was filed by the Assignee, Microflor N.V. of Lochristi, Belgium on Mar. 8, 2022, application number 2022/0622 and was published on Jun. 15, 2022. Foreign priority is not claimed to this application.
The Inventor and Applicant/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 U.S. Plant Patent application. Any information about the claimed plant would have been obtained from a direct or indirect disclosure from the Inventor or the Applicant/Assignee. Inventor and Applicant/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 of this U.S. Plant Patent application.
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 ‘MI01930’.
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 relatively large flowers with unique and attractive flower coloration.
The new Phalaenopsis plant originated from a cross-pollination by the Inventor in September, 2014 in Lochristi, Belgium of a proprietary selection of Phalaenopsis hybrida identified as code number MI00019, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Phalaenopsis hybrida identified as code number PH02453, 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 June, 2017.
Asexual reproduction of the new Phalaenopsis plant by in vitro meristem propagation in a controlled environment in Lochristi, Belgium since October, 2018 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 ‘MI01930’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘MI01930’ as a new and distinct Phalaenopsis plant:
    • 1. Upright plant habit.
    • 2. Vigorous growth habit and rapid growth rate.
    • 3. Strong flowering stems.
    • 4. Numerous strong leaves.
    • 5. Freely flowering habit with typically two inflorescences per plant, each inflorescence with numerous flowers.
    • 6. Soft pink-colored flowers.
    • 7. Good postproduction longevity.
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 shorter than plants of the female parent selection.
    • 2. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis grow faster than plants of the female parent selection.
    • 3. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis have more leaves per plant than plants of the female parent selection.
    • 4. Flowers of plants of the new Phalaenopsis are lighter pink in color than flowers of plants of the female parent selection.
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 more inflorescences per plant than plants of the male parent selection.
    • 2. Flowers of plants of the new Phalaenopsis last seven weeks longer than flowers of plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Phalaenopsis can be compared to plants of Phalaenopsis hybrida ‘Kikion’, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Phalaenopsis differ primarily from plants of ‘Kikion’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Phalaenopsis have larger flowers than plants of ‘Kikion’.
    • 2. Flowers of plants of the new Phalaenopsis are darker pink in color than flowers of plants of ‘Kikion’.
    • 3. Flowers of plants of the new Phalaenopsis have smaller spots on the lateral lobes of the labellum than flowers of plants of ‘Kikion’.
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 at the top of the sheet (FIG. 1 ) is a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘MI01930’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet (FIG. 2 ) is a close-up view of a typical flower of ‘MI01930’.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown during the winter in 12-cm containers in a glass-covered greenhouse in Lochristi, Belgium and under cultural practices typically used in commercial Phalaenopsis production.
