Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Gerbera plant named `Terflorin`, as illustrated and described, characterized by its single type, distinct orange ray florets which are a solid orange color throughout, a very distinctive greyed-purple disc before flowering of disc florets, orange male and female mature disc florets, the outermost florets which display light yellow stigmas and the middle florets showing light yellow anthers, orange perianth lobe color and 110 mm overall flower diameter.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Gerbera jamesonii, referred to by the cultivar name `Terflorin`.
`Terflorin` was originated from a hybridization program in De Kwakel, The Netherlands in 1992. The female parent was `Terfacci` and the male parent was `Fuego`. The female parent `Terfacci` is pink and single and has a green center. Of the male parent `Fuego` no description is available. `Terfacci` has been available outside Terra Nigra and is the subject of U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,848. The new cultivar was selected by me from the progeny of the stated parentage on or about September 1992. The first asexual reproduction of `Terflorin` was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were taken on January 1993 in De Kwakel. The new cultivar is presently being propagated by cuttings and tissue culture. Horticultural examination of selected units initiated May 1995 has demonstrated that the combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for `Terflorin` are firmly fixed and are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
`Terflorin` has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity and day length. The following observations, measurements and comparisons describe plants grown in De Kwakel, The Netherlands, under greenhouse conditions which closely approximate those generally used in commercial practice.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be basic characteristics of `Terflorin`, which in combination distinguish this Gerbera from its parents and all other varieties of which I am aware:
1. Type: Single.
2. Color of ray floret: Orange.
3. Color of disc before flowering of disc florets: RHS187A.
4. Color of perianth lobe: Orange.
5. Diameter of flower head: 100-110 mm.
Of the many commercial cultivars known to me, there is no cultivar similar in comparison to `Terflorin`.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURE OF THE DRAWING
The accompanying photographic drawing shows typical inflorescence characteristics with the colors being as nearly true as possible in illustrations of this type. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Color Chart (RHS). The color values were determined at 16:00 p.m. on 22 Sep. 1992 under natural light at De Kwakel.
