Abstract

A new and distinct PetuniaxCalibrachoa cultivar named ‘DANCALI3 ’ is disclosed, characterized by having a distinctive large, bright pink, glossy flowers, and a trailing plant habit. The new variety is a Petunia sensu Wijsman×Calibrachoa llave normally produced as an outdoor garden or container plant.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: Petunia sensu Wijsman×Calibrachoa llave.
Variety denomination: ‘DANCALI3 ’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The new Petunia cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor, Gavriel Danziger, in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel.
The seed parent is the unpatented, proprietary seedling variety referred to as Petunia sensu Wijsman ‘Pe-277.’ The pollen parent is the unpatented, proprietary seedling variety referred to as Calibrachoa llave ‘CA793.’ The new variety was discovered in March 2008 by the inventor in a group of seedlings resulting from that crossing, in a commercial greenhouse in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘DANCALI3’ by vegetative cuttings was first performed at a commercial greenhouse in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel in March 2008 and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘DANCALI3’ has not been 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 characteristics of ‘DANCALI3.’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘DANCALI3’ as a new and distinct Petunia cultivar:
    • 1. Distinctive bright pink flower color.
    • 2. Very large flowers.
    • 3. Glossy surface texture of flowers.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DANCALI3’ are similar to plants of the seed parent, Petunia sensu Wijsman ‘Pe-277’ in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘DANCALI3’ produce larger flowers, of a darker pink and plants with more branches.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DANCALI3’ are similar to plants of the pollen parent, Calibrachoa llave ‘CA-793’ in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘DANCALI3’ produce bright pink flowers, whereas the pollen parent produces white flowers. Additionally, the new variety produces larger flowers than the pollen parent, and branches less.
COMMERCIAL COMPARISON
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DANCALI3’ are comparable to the variety ‘DANCALIPET,’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,063. The two varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics, however, the new variety ‘DANCALI3’ differs in having a larger flower, in a solid pink color whereas ‘DANCALIPET’ has a dark pink/purple flower.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘DANCALI3’ grown in a greenhouse, in a 16 cm basket. Age of the plant photographed is approximately 3 months from a rooted cutting.
FIG. 2 illustrates in full color a close up of a typical bloom of ‘DANCALI3.’
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.
