Alstroemeria named Zelblanca

Abstract

A new and distinct Alstroemeria cultivar particularly distinguished by the substantially overall white color of the outer petals which surround heavily striped inner petals, the upper pair of which have an almost overall coloring of yellow and being accented by dark brown, longitudinally-extending pencil stripes arising from a dark brown base and the lower one of which is substantially white but also bears the longitudinally-extending brown stripes. This new plant is further distinguished by its continued and profuse year around blooming habit, the very large size of its generally white flowers, its vigorous, upright growth habit, and by the excellent lasting quality of its blooms both on the plant and as cut flowers.

I claim: 
     
       1. The new and distinctive Alstroemeria cultivar and parts thereof substantially as herein shown and described, characterized by the pure white coloration of the outer petals of its flowers and the end portions only of the upper pair of the inner petals, the principal body portion of the lower one of the inner petals having a distinctive yellow coloration and the upper ones of the inner petals being heavily marked with dark, longitudinally-extending pencil stripes; and by the very large size of the flowers and the vigorous, upright and tall growth habit of the plant.
