Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Hibiscus plant named ‘White Treasure Wind’, characterized by its semi-upright and uniformly mounded plant habit appropriate for container production; freely branching habit, dense and bushy appearance; glossy dark green-colored leaves; uniform, freely and early flowering habit; single white-colored flowers with dark red-colored centers; good postproduction and garden performance; and tolerance to Bacterial Leaf Spot.
Description
Botanical designation: Hibiscus rosa-sinensis.
Cultivar denomination: ‘WHITE TREASURE WIND’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct Hibiscus plant, botanically known as Hibiscus rosa-sinensis and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘White Treasure Wind’.
The new Hibiscus plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Alva, Fla. The objective of the breeding program is to create new freely-branching Hibiscus plants with uniform plant habit appropriate for container production, early and freely flowering habit, desirable flower color, good garden performance and resistance to Bacterial Leaf Spot.
The new Hibiscus plant originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in Alva, Fla. in 2014 of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis ‘Luau Pink Paki’, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with Hibiscus rosa-sinensis ‘Caribbean Pink’, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Hibiscus 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 Alva, Fla. on Aug. 11, 2015.
Asexual reproduction of the new Hibiscus plant by vegetative terminal cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Alva, Fla. since November, 2015 has shown that the unique features of this new Hibiscus plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the new Hibiscus 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 ‘White Treasure Wind’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘White Treasure Wind’ as a new and distinct Hibiscus plant:
-
- 1. Semi-upright and uniformly mounded plant habit appropriate for container production.
- 2. Freely branching habit, dense and bushy appearance.
- 3. Glossy dark green-colored leaves.
- 4. Uniform, freely and early flowering habit.
- 5. Single white-colored flowers with dark red-colored centers.
- 6. Good postproduction and garden performance.
- 7. Tolerance to Bacterial Leaf Spot.
Plants of the new Hibiscus can be compared to plants of the female parent, ‘Luau Pink Paki’. Plants of the new Hibiscus differ primarily from plants of ‘Luau Pink Paki’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more uniform in plant habit than plants of ‘Luau Pink Paki’.
- 2. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more uniform in flowering habit than plants of ‘Luau Pink Paki’.
- 3. Flowers of plants of the new Hibiscus are white in color whereas flowers of plants of ‘Luau Pink Paki’ are light pink in color.
- 4. Flowers of plants of the new Hibiscus last about two to three days whereas flowers of plants of ‘Luau Pink Paki’ last about one day.
Plants of the new Hibiscus can be compared to plants of the male parent, ‘Caribbean Pink’. Plants of the new Hibiscus differ primarily from plants of Caribbean Pink’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more vigorous than plants of ‘Caribbean Pink’.
- 2. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more freely flowering than plants of ‘Caribbean Pink’.
- 3. Flowers of plants of the new Hibiscus are white in color whereas flowers of plants of ‘Caribbean Pink’ are pink in color.
- 4. Flowers of plants of the new Hibiscus last about two to three days whereas flowers of plants of ‘Caribbean Pink’ last about one day.
Plants of the new Hibiscus can be compared to plants of the Hibiscus rosa-sinensis ‘Ivory Wind’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 31,353. In side-by-side comparisons plants of the new Hibiscus differ from plants of ‘Ivory Wind’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Hibiscus are more vigorous than plants of ‘Ivory Wind’.
- 2. Flowers of plants of the new Hibiscus are larger and whiter in color than flowers of plants of ‘Ivory Wind’.
- 3. Flowers of plants of the new Hibiscus last about two to three days whereas flowers of plants of ‘Ivory Wind’ last about one day.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Hibiscus 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 Hibiscus plant.
The photograph on the first sheet (FIG. 1 ) is a side perspective view of typical flowering plants of ‘White Treasure Wind’ grown in a container.
The photograph on the second sheet (FIG. 2 ) is a close-up view of a typical flowering plant of ‘White Treasure Wind’ showing developing flower buds and a fully developed flower.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown during the summer in 15-cm containers in a polyethylene-covered greenhouse in Alva, Fla. and in 24-cm containers in an outdoor nursery in Fort Worth, Tex. under cultural practices which closely approximate commercial Hibiscus production. During the production of the plants in Texas, day temperatures ranged from 35° C. to 40° C., night temperatures ranged from 24° C. to 35° C. and light levels ranged from 5,000 to 7,500 foot-candles. Plants were pinched two times and were nine months old when the photographs and the description were taken. In the description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2015 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
