Abstract

Cymbidium 'Purple Star' (Miake 'Pieta' ${\times}$ 'Allstar Mariane') was developed from a cross between hybrids at the National Institute of Horticultural & Herbal Science (NIHHS), Rural Development Administration (RDA) in 2008. A cross was made between purple colored flower C. Miake 'Pieta' as maternal line and dark pink colored flower, C. 'Allstar Mariane' as paternal line in 1995. The seed germination, cultivation, selection, and characteristic trials were conducted from 1996 to 2002. The line was named as Wongyo 'F1-21' and phenotype was characterized in 2007 as a new cultivar. The 'Purple Star' has dark purple basal color (RHS, GP186A) on both of sepal and petal with red lip (RHS, RP59A). 'Purple Star' has about 10.7 flowers per flower stalk and flower size of 7.6 cm. General appearance of petals and sepals is slightly incurved shape. The plant size is intermediate having erect peduncle. Blooming is started from the late of January (mid-winter) under optimal culture condition. Leaf attitude and twisting is erect and weak respectively. This hybrid has attractive floral arrangement, long flower stalk (78.4 cm) and vigorous growth. 'Purple Star' has a great potential for exporting to Chinese market.

농촌진흥청 원예특작과학원에서는 2008년에 진한 자주색의 수출용 중 대형품종을 육성할 목적으로 1995년에 진자주색계 중형종 C. Miake'Pieta'와 중형종 진분홍색계 'Allstar Mariane' 품종을 교배하여 진자주색계 '퍼플스타'(Cymbidium 'Purple Star') 신품종을 개발하였다. 1996년부터 2007년까지 종자기내파종, 온실양성, 선발 그리고 특성검정으로 균일성, 안정성, 화색, 화수, 엽형 등이 우수하여 2008년 12월 농작물 직무육성 심의회를 거쳐 'Purple Star'로 명명하였다. 'Purple Star' 품종은 진자주색계(RHS, GP 186A)이며, 1개 꽃대에 10.7개의 소화가 착생하며 화폭이 약 7.6 cm로 크다. 꽃모양은 꽃받침과 꽃잎이 안쪽으로 약간 오므라드는 둥근 모양이고 꽃대는 반직립성이며 식물체 크기는 중형이다. 꽃은 보통재배시 1월 초순경부터 개화하는 중생종이며 잎 형태는 꼬임이 적은 반직립성이고 꽃대의 길이는 78.4 cm로 강건하며 수출용 재배에 적합하다.
