Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Delosperma plant named ‘Kelaidis’, characterized by its compact, prostrate and spreading plant habit; freely branching growth habit, dense and bushy growth habit; light pink-colored flowers; and excellent garden performance.
Description
Delosperma cooperi cultivar Kelaidis.
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Delosperma plant, botanically known as Delosperma cooperi, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Kelaidis’.
The new Delosperma was discovered and selected by the Inventor in a controlled environment in Denver, Colo. in 1998 as a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of an unidentified selection of Delosperma cooperi, not patented.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by cuttings taken in a controlled environment in Denver, Colo. since 1998, has shown that the unique features of this new Delosperma are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the cultivar Kelaidis have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment and culture such as temperature without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Kelaidis’ . These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Kelaidis’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Compact, prostrate and spreading plant habit.
2. Freely branching growth habit, dense and bushy growth habit.
3. Light pink-colored flowers.
4. Excellent garden performance.
Plants of the new Delosperma are most similar to plants of the parent, the unidentified selection of Delosperma cooperi, however plants of the new Delosperma differ from plants of the parent selection primarily in flower color.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new cultivar, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Delosperma.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical plant of ‘Kelaidis’.
The photograph on the second sheet is a close-up view of a typical flower and leaves of ‘Kelaidis’.
Plants used for the aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements were planted into one-gallon containers and grown for about four months in a polyethylene-covered greenhouse in Denver, Colo. During the production of the plants, the day temperatures ranged from 13 to 27° C. and night temperatures ranged from 4 to 18° C. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
