Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of New Guinea Impatiens plant named `Dueriwhiteye`, characterized by its rounded flowers that are white with a pink "eye" zone; freely flowering; freely branching plant habit; dark green leaves that contrast well with the white flower color.
Description
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of New Guinea Impatiens plant, botanically known as Impatiens hawkeri, and hereinafter referred to by the name `Dueriwhiteye`. The new cultivar is marketed under the name Riviera White Eye.
The new cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Rheinberg, Germany. The objective of the breeding program is to develop New Guinea Impatiens that are freely branching; early flowering; and that have desirable flower and leaf colors.
The new cultivar originated from a cross made by the Inventor of the Impatiens hawkeri proprietary selection identified as D6 as the female, or seed, parent with the Impatiens hawkeri proprietary selection identified as K2 as the male, or pollen, parent.
`Dueriwhiteye` was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross in a controlled environment in Rheinberg, Germany.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal cuttings taken at Rheinberg, Germany, has shown that the unique features of this new cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of `Dueriwhiteye`. These characteristics in combination distinguish `Dueriwhiteye` as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Rounded flowers that are white with a pink "eye" zone.
2. Freely flowering.
3. Freely branching plant habit.
4. Dark green leaves that contrast well with the white flower color.
Compared to plants of the female parent, plants of the new cultivar have larger and more rounded flowers. Compared to plants of the male parent, plants of the new cultivar are more vigorous and have larger flowers with a larger "eye" zone.
The new cultivar can be compared to the commercial `Samoa` (disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,422). However, plants of the new cultivar have stronger, more durable flowers with a larger pink "eye" zone than plants of the cultivar Samoa.
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new cultivar, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. The photograph comprises a side perspective view of a typical plant of `Dueriwhiteye` grown in a 12-cm container.
Plants of `Dueriwhiteye` have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, daylength and light intensity, without, however, any variance in genotype. The following observations and measurments describe plants grown in 12-cm containers during the fall in Rheinberg, Germany, under commercial practice in a glass-covered greenhouse with day and night temperatures about 18° C. and light levels about 45 klux.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
