Abstract

A new and distinct Petunia cultivar named ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’ is disclosed, characterized by pink and white fully double bi color flowers, mounding and floriferous plant habit. The new variety is a Petunia, suitable as an outdoor garden or container plant.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: Petunia hybrid.
Variety denomination: ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’.
The new Petunia cultivar resulted as part of a planned breeding program by the inventor Jun Tsukahara, in Yame, Fukuoka, Japan. The objective of the breeding program was to develop new Petunia varieties with interesting colors and attractive plant forms.
The new variety resulted from the crossing of the seed parent, an unnamed, unpatented proprietary Petunia seedling with the pollen parent, an unnamed, unpatented proprietary Petunia seedling in September 2005. The new variety was discovered in November of 2007 by the inventor in a group of seedlings resulting from that crossing, in a commercial greenhouse in Yame, Fukuoka, Japan.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’ by was first performed by vegetative cuttings at a commercial greenhouse in Yame, Fukuoka, Japan in January 2008. Subsequently many generations have been produced and have shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’ has not observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, day length and light intensity, without however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characeristics of ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS.’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’ as a new and distinct Petunia cultivar:
    • 1. Unique and stable pink and white bi color flower.
    • 2. Compact and mounding plant shape.
    • 3. Highly floriferous habit.
    • 4. Fully double flower.
COMPARISON TO THE PARENT VARIETIES
Plants of the new cultivar ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’ are similar in most horticultural characteristics to plants of the unnamed proprietary seed parent. However, the seed parent has a solid pink colored flower, which are single, not double, and smaller overall flower size than the new cultivar. Additionally, the seed parent has thinner diameter stems than ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’ are similar in most horticultural characteristics to plants of the unnamed proprietary pollen parent. However, the pollen parent has solid purple colored flowers, a larger overall flower size than the new cultivar. Additionally, the pollen parent produces taller plants than ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’.
COMPARISON TO COMMERCIAL VARIETIES
The new cultivar can be compared to the commercial variety ‘KLEPH06126’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 19,907. ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’ is similar to this commercial variety in most horticultural characteristics, however, the new variety forms more mound shape, less trailing plants, and has a different color.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying photograph illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘Bluette Strawberry Sundae RS’ grown in a greenhouse, in a 24 cm basket. Age of the plant photographed is approximately 4 months from 5 rooted cuttings. The photographs were taken using conventional techniques and although colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance it is as accurate as possible by conventional photographic techniques.
