ABSTRACT:

Botanical classification:
Zantedeschia sprengeri.
Varietal denomination: ‘Tahiti’.
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
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 ‘Tahiti’.
‘Tahiti’ was discovered in 1997 and chosen from a selection of seedling tubers of unknown parentage in Maungaturoto, New Zealand. The first act of asexual reproduction of ‘Tahiti’ by tissue culture was performed in 1998 in Auckland, New Zealand. Subsequent asexual reproductions by tissue culture have demonstrated that the combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for the new cultivar are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and determined to be basic characteristics of ‘Tahiti’ which, in combination, distinguish this calla lily as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. ‘Tahiti’ has a different shaped leaf with fewer leaf maculations than ‘Sunglow’ (unpatented), ‘Inspiration’ (unpatented), and ‘Tropica’ (unpatented); and
2. ‘Tahiti’ is more apricot-orange colored than ‘Neroli’ (unpatented) and ‘Passionfruit’ (unpatented).
