ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of impatiens, botanically known as
Impatiens walleriana,
and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Fify Red’, and is characterized by the following combinations of repeatedly observed traits:
1. Very free flowering,
2. small, single, slightly cup shaped flowers,
3. basal branching with small leaves, and
4. early flowering.
Asexual reproduction of this cultivar by stem cuttings taken during November, 1996, at Andijk, The Netherlands, has demonstrated that the characteristics of the new cultivar as herein described are firmly fixed and are retained through successive generations of such asexual propagation, such reproduction establishing that the plant does in fact maintain the characteristics described in successive generations. The female parent (i.e., the seed parent) was an
Impatiens walleriana
named IN-1444-1 (unpatented) and the male parent (i.e., pollen parent) was an
Impatiens walleriana
named IN-1437-3 (unpatented). The cross was made in 1995 and the seedling was selected in 1996.
This new cultivar has been identified as Impatiens ‘Fify Red’. It is possible that other identification will be adopted in the trade, but the name selected will serve for the purposes hereof.
