Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Euphorbia plant named ‘BONPRI 1756’, characterized by its upright and mounded plant habit; vigorous growth habit; freely branching habit; inflorescences with red-colored flower bracts; and good post-production longevity.
Description
Botanical designation: Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ex Klotzsch X Euphorbia cornastra.
Cultivar denomination: ‘BONPRI 1756’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Euphorbia plant, an interspecific hybrid botanically known as Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ex Klotzsch X Euphorbia cornastra, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘BONPRI 1756’.
The new Euphorbia plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Yellow Rock, New South Wales, Australia. The objective of the program is to create and develop new interspecific Euphorbia plants with compact, upright and mounded plant habit and attractive flower bracts.
The new Euphorbia plant is a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of a proprietary selection of Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ex Klotzsch X Euphorbia cornastra identified as code number Eu 15-16, not patented. The new Euphorbia plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant from within a population of plants of the mutation parent selection in a controlled greenhouse environment in Yellow Rock, New South Wales, Australia in September, 2017.
Asexual reproduction of the new Euphorbia plant by terminal vegetative cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Yellow Rock, New South Wales, Australia since September, 2017 has shown that the unique features of this new Euphorbia plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
Plants of the new Euphorbia 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, daylength 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 ‘BONPRI 1756’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘BONPRI 1756’ as a new and distinct Euphorbia plant:
-
- 1. Upright and mounded plant habit.
- 2. Vigorous growth habit.
- 3. Freely branching habit.
- 4. Inflorescences with red-colored flower bracts.
- 5. Good post-production longevity.
Plants of the new Euphorbia differ primarily from plants of the mutation parent selection in flower bract color as flower bracts of plants of the new Euphorbia are more orangish red in color than flower bracts of plants of the mutation parent selection.
Plants of the new Euphorbia can be compared to plants of the Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ex Klotzsch X Euphorbia cornastra ‘Bonpridepcom’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,324. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Euphorbia differ primarily from plants of ‘Bonpridepcom’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Euphorbia are taller, broader and more vigorous than plants of ‘Bonpridepcom’.
- 2. Plants of the new Euphorbia have smaller leaves than plants of ‘Bonpridepcom’.
- 3. Leaves of plants of the new Euphorbia are lanceolate in shape whereas leaves of plants of ‘Bonpridepcom’ are ovate in shape.
- 4. Plants of the new Euphorbia have fewer flower bracts per inflorescence than plants of ‘Bonpridepcom’.
- 5. Plants of the new Euphorbia have smaller flower bracts per inflorescence than plants of ‘Bonpridepcom’.
- 6. Plants of the new Euphorbia and ‘Bonpridepcom’ differ in flower bract color as flower bracts of plants of the new Euphorbia are red in color whereas flower bracts of plants of ‘Bonpridepcom’ are dark red purple in color.
The accompanying photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Euphorbia 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 Euphorbia plant.
The photograph at the top of the photographic sheet (FIG. 1 ) is a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘BONPRI 1756’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the bottom of the photographic sheet (FIG. 2 ) is a top perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘BONPRI 1756’ grown in a container.
Plants used in the aforementioned photographs and described herewith in detail were grown during the autumn and early winter in 10.5-cm containers in an outdoor nursery in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan and under cultural practices typical of commercial Euphorbia production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures averaged 23 C and night temperatures averaged 13 C. Plants were six months old when the photographs and the 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.
