Variety traits

Calibrachoa flower color

Calibrachoa Cerv.

This trait is key for variety identification according to UPOV guidelines and is assessed descriptively using the RHS color chart. Color serves as an indicator of adherence to agronomic practices, as it is sensitive to light levels, temperature stress, and nutrient availability.

In the reference 37 varieties crop Calibrachoa, where this is mentioned in the description.

In Calibrachoa variety testing, color is classified by the primary color of the corolla, with additional notes recorded for vein color, throat color, and the presence of secondary tones. For double-flowered forms, visual assessment is conducted on the outer corolla lobes. RHS color charts are used for description; for varieties with changing color during the growing season, the predominant color is considered the key.

The stability of Calibrachoa pigmentation depends directly on growing conditions. Insufficient light levels reduce the brightness of red and purple tones by up to 40%, while overheating of the root zone in containers or imbalances in substrate pH, which cause iron deficiency, lead to the inhibition of pigment synthesis and general flower fading.
