ABSTRACT:
Latin name:
Osteospermum ecklonis.
Varietal denomination: Osantis.
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of
Osteospermum
plant, botantially known as
Osteospermum ecklonis
. The new
Osteospermum
is propagated by cuttings resulting from a cross of a proprietary
Osteospermum ecklonis
seedling selection as the male, or pollen, parent identified as code number ‘C272’ with a proprietary
Osteospermum ecklonis
selection identified as code number ‘C298’ as the female, or seed, parent. ‘C272’ has a plant height of 30 cm and a plant width of 20 cm. ‘C298’ has a plant height of 18 cm and a plant width of 12 cm.
The new
Osteospermum
was discovered and selected as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross grown in Enkhuizen, Netherlands, in 1998. Neither ‘C272’ nor ‘C298’ has been patented. The new
Osteospermum
plant has been repeatably asexually reproduced by cuttings in Enkhuizen, Netherlands over a period of 3 years. It has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive propagations, and this novelty appears to be firmly fixed.
