Abstract
A new variety of hybrid Asiatic lily having large compact racemes of flowers of large size and excellent form, an intense and unusual color pattern, and long persistence, both on the plant and as cut flowers. The flowers of this new plant are particularly characterized by their unusual combination of yellow and gold color tones, and by their very light maculation, a color pattern new in the upright Asiatic division of lilies. The plant itself is highly resistant to disease and shows high tolerance to virus, making it an excellent garden plant. Also, the bulbs may be precooled and forced for cut-flower production of flowers which are produced later than those of siblings similar in appearance, thereby extending the season of cut-flower production.
Description
My new variety of lily plant originated as a seedling selected from a group of seedlings grown at Sandy, Oreg., and resulting from my crossing of the species Lilium wilsonii var, flavum and "Connecticut King" as the pollen parent, this crossing having been done in the course of breeding efforts carried on by me since the year 1971 with the object of producing superior upright-flowering Asiatic lilies in shades of yellow and gold, suited to cut-flower production with a range of flowering times so as to extend the season of cut-flower production.
The flowers of my new lily plant are particularly characterized by large size, thick textured and very broad tepals having an unusual color pattern, each yellow tepal being flushed with gold adjacent its base end and having a very small amount of spotting adjacent each side of the nectaries. In addition, this new lily plant has, to a high degree, the desirable characteristics of hybrid vigor, great hardiness, and disease resistance, as observed in the area of Sandy, Oreg., with all of the desired characteristics of form, color, and habit. This clone is vigorous and a good grower and propagator.
This new variety of lily plant has been asexually reproduced by me and under my direction at Sandy, Oreg., and successive generations produced by bulb scale propagation and natural propagation from bulblets has demonstrated that the novel and distinctive characteristics of this new variety hold true from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed.
My new variety of Asiatic lily plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing, which shows an open bloom, hand painted to show the true coloration, illustrating the flower form, the tepal arrangement, and in particular the novel and distinctive yellow and gold color pattern, as well as its unusually broad tepals with their very light maculation.
The following is a detailed description of my new variety of hybrid Asiatic lily with color designations according to The R.H.S Colour Chart, published by The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England.
Origin: Seedling.
Parentage:
Seed parent.--Lilium wilsonii var. `flavum` (unpatented).
Pollen parent.--"Connecticut King" (unpatented).
Classification:
Botanic.--Hybrid lily cultivar, Division 1-A of The Horticultural Classification of Lilies by The Royal Horticultural Society.
Commercial.--Upright Asiatic hybrid lily.
Form: Erect and tall, with a single stem.
Height: 120 to 170 cm. from bulbs 15 to 20 cm. in circumference.
Growth: Vigorous and sturdy.
Foliage:
Quantity.--Abundant.
Leaf size.--About 8 to 12 cm. long and 1.5 to 2 cm. wide.
Leaf shape.--Lanceolate with obtuse tip and entire margins.
Texture.--Leathery.
Aspect.--Glossy.
Color.--Both upper and bottom sides, medium to light green.
Bulbs:
Size.--Ranging up to 25 cm. in circumference for commercial use.
Color.--White.
Form: Long with ovate base and obtuse tip.
Size: About 7 to 9 cm. long just prior to opening.
Opening rate: The bud opens slowly at maturity, in response to light.
Color: Medium to deep yellow when the outer tepals first divide and when the tepals begin to unfurl.
Tepals:
Color.--Medium to deep yellow on both upper and bottom surfaces, the upper surface being flushed with gold adjacent the nectaries.
Peduncle:
Length.--About 7.5 to 10 cm., depending upon light levels.
Color.--Medium green.
Blooming habit: Annually, blooming once and profusely in the late Asiatic lily season. October-dug bulbs, properly precooled, planted under glass in February in western Oregon, with no supplementary lighting, flower in an average of about 80 to 85 days.
Size: Large; about 14 to 18 cm. in diameter.
Borne: In a compact raceme with about 6 to 8 flowers on a single stem, and the inflorescence may carry secondary buds.
Shape: Flat to slightly cup-shaped with the tepal tips lightly recurved, and the tepals being more broad in the mid-portion than the sepals.
Tepalage:
Number.--Six.
Arrangement.--Imbricated.
Color.--Yellow, RHS 12 A-B; each of the petals having a flush of Gold, RHS 21A, about 2 cm. wide and 2 cm. long above the nectary and along the midrib, the base end of the petals having a few small spots of deep magenta color on each side of the nectary furrows.
Aspect.--Shiny.
Pedicels:
Length.--About 4 to 6 cm. (The inflorescence carries some secondary buds on the shorter pedicels.)
Form.--Sturdy and upright.
Color.--Light green.
Fragrance: None.
Persistence: The flower is long lasting, both on the plant and as a cut flower, with the tepals staying on the stem about three weeks.
Disease resistance: The flower and plant are resistant to disease. Particularly resistant to Fusarium and Botrytis, as observed in the region of Sandy, Oreg.
046597217 Stamens:
Number.--Six.
Arrangement.--Typical of genus Lilium.
Anthers:
Color.--Greyed Gold, RHS 167A.
Filaments:
Length.--About 5 cm.
Color.--Ivory or yellow.
Pollen color: Same as anthers.
Pistils:
Number.--One.
Style length: About 5 cm.
Stigma color: Light plum to gold.
Characteristics of ovary: Typical of genus Lilium.
Fertility: The fruit is fertile.
Shape: Ovoid.
Color at maturity: Soft brown, sometimes overlaid with light plum.
This new variety of hybrid Asiatic lily most nearly resembles Connecticut King (unpatented) but the flower has much broader tepals each having a few small spots on each side of the nectary furrows at the base end. This new variety flowers later than does Connecticut King, thereby extending the cut-flower season.
