Abstract
A new Alstroemeria variety characterized by its darkish red petals, the inner ones of which have a yellow base over which short brown pencil-stripe spots appear in longitudinally extending rows, and by its vigorous upright growth with more-or-less continuous production of flowers on each branch during each of its recurrent blooming seasons.
Description
This new Alstroemeria cultivar originated as a sport of an unnamed and unpatented variety selected from my breeding stock at Aalsmeer, Holland, and which had been subjected to Roentgen radiation at the I.T.A.L. Institute at Wageningen, Holland, in 1973. The parent variety is identified in my records as WC 1172 and the object of the radiation technique was to improve the color of WC 1172. This sport appeared to have accomplished my purpose and my asexual propagation of this new plant, at Aalsmeer, Holland, through successive generations, by dividing root stocks, has demonstrated that its distinctive characteristics hold true from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed. Propagation of this new variety is now being carried on at Aalsmeer, Holland, by dividing root stocks.
My new variety of Alstroemeria plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which is a black and white rendition of the plant in full bloom, the drawing having been hand painted in part to show the true coloring and the form of the individual flowers.
The following is a detailed description of my new Alstroemeria cultivar with color designations according to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England.
