Abstract

A new and distinct Alstroemeria variety producing flowers of good quality of unusual red coloration.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of Alstroemeria originated as a seedling by crossing as seed parent an unreleased, unpatented seedling identified as 85T305-1 and as pollen parent an unreleased, unpatented seedling identified as 86F679-1 from among my collection of Alstroemeria seedlings maintained under controlled conditions in a greenhouse at Van Staaveren B.V., Aalsmeer, The Netherlands, for developmental purposes. The varietal denomination of the new variety is `Stasach`.
The first act of asexual reproduction of `Stasach` was in Aalsmeer, The Netherlands, by propagation by dividing rootstocks. Asexual reproduction through successive generations has demonstrated that the combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for `Stasach` are firmly fixed and retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
`Stasach` has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. Phenotypic expression may vary with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity, day length and growing and cultural conditions.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Flowers of the new variety of Alstroemeria, `Stasach` are of medium size and are characterized by two concentric circles of three petals of unusual attractive red coloration, as described herein.
The plant produces flowering stems, which are strong and of excellent quality. `Stasach` grows productively under greenhouse conditions and is also reproducible both by division of rhizomes and by tissue culture.
