PLANT VARIETIES JOURNAL 2000 VOL <strong>13</strong> NO. 1<br />
number of flowers medium to many. Flower pedicel: hairs<br />
or thorns few. Flower bud: shape broad ovate to ovate.<br />
Flower: type double borne both singly and in well spaced<br />
clusters, petal number many, colour peachy apricot,<br />
diameter large (mean 91.3mm), viewed from above<br />
irregularly rounded, upper and lower profile flat, fragrance<br />
medium. Sepal: extensions weak to medium (length mean<br />
32.9mm). Petal: size large, colour of inner and outer side of<br />
midzone RHS 23C and 23D, colour of inner and outer side<br />
of margin RHS 26D and 27A, basal spot present on inner<br />

medium, reflexing of margin weak to medium, undulation<br />
of margin medium; stamen filament colour yellow; seed<br />
vessel size large, pitcher shaped; flowering habit almost<br />
continuous, time of beginning of flowering medium. (Note<br />
All RHS chart numbers refer to 1986 edition).<br />
Origin and Breeding Controlled pollination: seed parent<br />
unnamed seedling x pollen parent ‘Pot-O-Gold’ in a<br />
planned breeding program at the applicant’s nursery in<br />
Knutsford, England. The seed parent was characterised by<br />
very fragrant, pale peachy pink flowers tinged with salmon<br />
and gold borne both singly and in clusters, prolific<br />
flowering, bushy and vigorous habit, and disease resistance.<br />
The pollen parent was characterised by medium fragrance,<br />
golden yellow flowers borne both singly and in clusters of<br />
several together, medium flowering and disease resistance.<br />
Hybridisation took place in Knutsford, England in 1987.<br />
Selection criteria: seedlings from the cross were grown and<br />
selection was made on the basis of medium fragrant,<br />
beautifully formed large peachy apricot flowers that are<br />
borne both singly and in well spaced clusters of several<br />
together, bushy and vigorous growth, and prolific flowering.<br />
Propagation: vegetative through many generations.<br />
Breeder: Gareth Fryer, Knutsford, Cheshire, England.<br />
Choice of Comparators ‘Sunauck’ A syn Barossa Dream A<br />
and ‘Just Joey’ were chosen as comparators as these are the<br />
most similar varieties of common knowledge based on<br />
flower colour. The parents were not considered for the trial<br />
as ‘Fryxotic’ syn Warm Wishes is clearly distinguishable<br />
from both parents on the basis of flower colour and growth<br />
habit as stated above.<br />
Comparative Trial Comparator(s): ‘Sunauck’ A syn<br />
Barossa Dream A , ‘Just Joey’. Location: Waterloo Corner,<br />
St Kilda, SA 1997/98 – 1999/2000. Conditions: virus<br />
indexed Dr Huey rootstock; plant spacing 1m by 0.9m; preripped,<br />
raised open beds, red loam soil; drip irrigated,<br />
complete fertiliser as required, chemical and mechanical<br />
weed control. Trial design: 10 plants of each variety<br />
arranged in two rows in unreplicated blocks.<br />
Measurements: twenty random samples from each variety.<br />
