Abstract
A new variety of hybrid lily plant bearing large upfacing flowers of excellent form and long persistence, both on the plant and as cut-flowers. The pastel orange flowers of the new hybrid are particularly characterized by their tiny, pollen-free anthers and their starry form, with all tepals approximately the same width. This combination is completely new in the Asiatic hybird divisions of lilies suited to forcing and to mass commercial cultivation. The variety is resistant to fusarium disease and shows tolerance of virus. The bulbs may be precooled and forced for cut-flower production. The clone is vigorous and is a good grower and propagator.
Description
My new variety of lily plant originated as a seedling which first flowered in 1986 in't Zandt, the Netherlands. The breeding efforts had as their objective the production of Asiatic hybrid lilies with upfacing, large-sized pollen-free flowers, suited to forcing into flower out of season, heretofore unknown in the lily breeding art. I achieved the desired objective by intercrossing a small-flowered, pollen-free white upfacing unnamed seedling with a tall, exceptionally vigorous, large-flowered orange unnamed seedling. Both parents were produced by me and never released. The seed parent for `Grandview` was a pollen-free, albino-flowered mutant Asiatic hybrid produced by open-pollination of `Sunkissed` (unpatented). `Sunkissed` was commercially available as a garden lily during the 1970's. The pollen parent for `Grandview` was produced by open pollination of `Chinook` (unpatented). `Chinook` was grown commercially in the United States and the Netherlands as a garden lily and cutflower variety during the 1970's and 1980's.
The flowers of my new lily are characterized by large, upfacing peach to pastel orange flowers with tiny, pollen-free anthers. The flowers have an unusual starry form, with all tepals approximately the same width. In addition, the clone possesses to a high degree desirable characteristics of hybird vigor. The clone is a good grower and propagator, as observed at 't Zandt, the Netherlands.
My new variety of lily plant has been asexually reproduced by me and under my direction at 't Zandt, the Netherlands. Successive generations produced by natural propagation from bulblets, by bulb scale propagation, and by tissue culturing from bulb scale explants have demonstrated that the novel and distinctive characteristics of my new variety are fixed and hold true under asexual propagation from generation to generation.
My new variety of lily plant is illustrated in the accompanying photographic drawing, which shows the open bloom in full color and illustrates the starry flower form with all tepals approximately the same width, the tepal arrangement, and in particular the novel and distinctive tiny, pollen-free anthers.
The following is a detailed description of my new variety of Asiatic hybird lily, with nomenclture according to the International Lily Register (The Royal Horticultural Society of London, Second Edition, 1969), and with color designations according to The Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society, published by the Society in 1966.

Appearance: Flower is shiny.
Disease resistance: The flower and plant are resistant to disease; in particular, they are resistant to Fusarium bulb rot and Botrytis blight.
Fragrance: None.
Lasting quality: The flower is long lasting, both on the plant and as a cut-flower.
Stamens: Arrangement typical of genus Lilium. Six stamens with R.H.S. Colour Chart orange 27 B filaments 4 to 7 cm long.

My new variety of Asiatic hybrid lily most nearly resembles `Chinook,` but it has a pollen-free flowers of a starrier form, much darker stems, and many vertical secondary buds.
