Asexual reproduction of the new Mandevilla plant by cut
tings in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan, since November, 2005, has shown that the unique features of this new Mandevilla plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive genera tions. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Pat. No. 17,736. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Higashiomi, Shiga, Japan, plants of the new Mandevilla dif fered from plants of ‘Sunmandecrikin’ in the following char 30
acteristics: 1. Plants of the new Mandevilla had shorter lateral
branches than plants of ‘Sunmandecrikin’. 2. Plants of the new Mandevilla had shorter leaves than
Plants of the new Mandevilla have not been observed under
all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environmental conditions
such as temperature 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 ‘Sunpar akama’. These characteristics in combination distinguish
plants of ‘ Sunmandecrikin’.
3. Plants of the new Mandevilla had brighter red-colored
?owers than plants of ‘Sunmandecrikin’. 4. Petal apices of plants of the new Mandevilla were cus
pidate whereas petal apices of plants of ‘Sunmande crikin’ were rounded.
