Abstract

‘Red Sox’ is a new variety of calla lily having a large flower with a scarlet-red colored spathe and producing 1-4 flowers per tuber. The leaves are a spotted medium green color with a leathery texture.

Description

Botanical classification: Zantedeschia sprengeri.
Varietal denomination: ‘Red Sox’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of calla lily, botanically known as Zantedeschia sprengeri and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Red Sox’.
‘Red Sox’ was discovered in 1992 in a selection of seedling tubers of unknown parentage in Maungaturoto, New Zealand. The new cultivar has a larger and more scarlet red colored spathe than other red colored calla lilies and is taller than other red colored calla lilies known to the inventor.
The first act of asexual reproduction of the new cultivar was performed by tissue culture in 1994 in Albany, Auckland, New Zealand. The new cultivar retained its characteristics through successive propagations.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The accompanying photographic drawing illustrates the new variety, with the color being as nearly true as is possible with color illustrations of this type.
FIG. 1 is a photograph of a single bloom above the leaves. The photograph was taken in the morning with some sunlight reflection distorting the color in the widening area of the spathe.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT
The following observations, measurements and comparisons describe plants grown in Paparoa, New Zealand under conditions which approximate those generally used in horticultural practice. Color references are made to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London, except where general color terms of ordinary significance are used.
