Abstract

A dark pink semi-double freesia (Freesia hybrida Hort.) 'Happy Birthday' was bred from a cross between 'Pink Jewel', F1 progeny of 'Michelle' and 'Rossini' as a female and 'White Lace' as a male parent. Test for the growth vigor and flowering characteristic were conducted from 2002 to 2007. A new variety 'Happy Birthday' has semi-double flower type with dark pink color (RHS color chart #RP66C). It has multiple flowers, distinctive flower shape, upright leaves and also stalks. The average yield of this variety 'Happy Birthday' counted over 6.7 stems per plant per season in the standard greenhouse cultivation method. It has also good production of cormlets, vigorous growth. A new variety 'Happy Birthday' is suitable for the greenhouse conditions during winter season in Korea.

농촌진흥청 국립원예특작과학원에서는 2008년 진분홍색 반겹꽃 프리지아 신품종 육성을 위한 목적으로 2000년에 'Michelle'과 'Rossini' 조합의 실생계통인 'Pink Jewel'과 'White Lace' 품종을 교배하여 진분홍색 반겹꽃, 다화성 품종 'Happy Birthday'를 개발하였다. 2000년 2월 교배하여 종자를 획득하였으며, 실생으로부터 파종 7개월 후 화색이 선명한 진분홍색 반겹꽃 다화성 우수개체를 1차로 선발하였다. 2003년부터 2007년까지 5년에 걸쳐 생육특성 및 수량 검정을 실시하였으며 안정성, 균일성, 초세, 절화수명, 및 구근 증식력이 우수하다고 판단되어 2008년 농작물 직무육성 신품종선정위원회의 심의를 거쳐 'Happy Birthday'로 명명하였다. 'Happy Birthday'는 진분홍색(RHS, RP66C) 다화성 반겹꽃 품종이다. 화형이 매우 안정되어 있고 초세가 강하며 잎과 꽃대가 직립하는 성질을 갖고 있다. 절화 수확량은 평균 6.7개로 매우 많고 개화소요일수는 대비품종에 비해 다소 빠르다. 구근 증식량이 많으며 국내 시설재배 환경에 적합한 품종이다.
