Abstract

A new Calibrachoa plant which combines a decumbent and compact growth habit with large funnelform flowers, having mostly white lobes and throat with a reddish-purple, star-like ring at the base of the throat. The plant grows vigorously, branching only moderately. The petals are united and each has a fissure and a slight indent. Fully-opened flowers have a diameter between 3.0-3.5 cm. The throat and limbs of the petals are mostly white (R.H.S. 155D). There is a reddish-purple, star-like ring (R.H.S. 72B) around the base of the corolla throat. The ring occurs at the point where the throat and limbs of the flower abruptly flare from the tube in the fully mature flower. The tube is bright yellow (R.H.S. 9A). Typically, young flowers will close under low light and low temperature conditions such as late in the day and at night, giving them their generally funnelform appearance.
