Abstract
A new Alstroemeria variety characterized by the pale colored blossoms, the outer petals of which are yellowish white and inner petals of which are deep yellow with a yellow striped heart with flecks of purplish red. The plant is early in flowering with relatively short stems.
Description
This new Alstroemeria originated as a sport at Rijnsburg, Holland. The particular sport was selected from plants propagated via root divisions by me in 1982 for propagation and testing because of the distinctive coloration of its blossoms produced on upright compact stems. Specifically, the inner petals are deep yellow with yellow striped hearts. The outer petals are light yellow with purplish pink toward the top. The inner petals have well defined longitudinal streaks or flecks of purplish red. The selected plant was propagated by me at Rijnsburg. Holland through several generations of root divisions to establish that its distinctive characteristics hold true from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed.
Breeding efforts commenced in 1980 and propagation is currently being carried out at Rinjsburg, Holland. The nearest variety is the Alstroemeria called Walter Fleming and my new variety, Cyprus, differs from the Walter Fleming in that (1) the outer petals are yellower with a slight purple coloring towards the top, (2) the filaments are light purplish-pink and (3) the plant is earlier in flowering.
This new variety of the Alstroemeria plant is illustrated by the accompanying photograph which shows a blooming umbel of the plant with buds and flowers in various stages of opening.
The following is a detailed description of my new Alstroemeria plant with color designations according to The National Bureau of Standards, Standard Reference Material, #2107, comprising the ISCC-NBS Centroid Color Charts and NBS Special Publication, #440.
