ABSTRACT:
A new and distinct plant variety of the Cactaceae family provides specimens that combine an upright, compact growth habit with a faster growth rate and a greater natural tendency to branch and produce a larger number of phylloclades without inducement by pruning than the `Lavender Doll` and `Kris Kringle` varieties of the truncatus species. The new variety provides specimens with phylloclades which are usually smaller in width and length dimensions than those of the `Lavender Doll` variety. The specimens of the new plant variety have a substantially greater resistance to flower bud abscission than exhibited by the `Lavender Doll` and `Kris Kringle` varieties and also have resistances to nutrient deficiencies and fungus type diseases that are comparable to such varieties. The bloom usually occurs later in the growing season than that of the `Lavender Doll` variety and it has a life of from about 6 to about 9 days. The tube laminating and tube forming tepals are characterized by marginal blade areas that in color are dominated by reddish purple and purplish red hues which penetrate deeply into the center field areas of the blades to provide a magenta appearing bloom coloration. The perianth tube is characterized by randomly arranged streaks or striations which in color are dominated by purplish pink hues and the variety is characterized by a degenerate carina that appears as a generally superior extension at the throat of the perianth tube. The style of the new variety is also commonly longer than those of the `Lavender Doll` and `Kris Kringle` varieties.
