ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Mimulus plant, botanically known as
Mimulus aurantiacus,
and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name Jelly Bean White.
The new Mimulus is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Alameda, Calif. The new Mimulus originated from a cross made by the Inventor of two unidentified selections of
Mimulus aurantiacus
. The new Mimulus was selected in 1999 on the basis of its compact and freely flowering habit.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal cuttings taken at Alameda, Calif., has shown that the unique features of this new Mimulus are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the cultivar Jelly Bean White have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity, daylength, and nutritional status without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Jelly Bean White’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Jelly Bean White’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Upright, rounded and compact plant habit.
2. Freely branching habit.
3. Moderate vigor.
4. Dark green leaves.
5. Numerous large ruffled white flowers with light yellow throat.
