Abstract
A new and distinct hybrid of Pulmonaria characterized by large bright raspberry-colored flowers with upright, well marked foliage and an extended bloom period.
Description
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivated variety of Pulmonaria which originated as a hybrid between Pulmonaria longifolia ‘Bertram Anderson’, unpatented (pod parent), and Pulmonaria ‘Leopard’, unpatented (pollen parent of hybrid origin). Neither parent is patented or protected in the U.S.
The new Pulmonaria is a result of a controlled cross of the aforementioned plants in Canby, Oreg. This hybrid was selected from a large number of seedlings. Parent plants were retained to observe habit and to compare with the new variety. The new variety has been reproduced only by asexual propagation (division and tissue culture). Each of the progeny exhibits identical characteristics to the original as evidenced by the following characteristics: large flowers (compared to other Pulmonaria longifolia hybrids in the marketplace), sharply tipped foliage, and intense flower color.
Asexual propagation by division and tissue cultures done in Canby, Oreg., shows that the foregoing characteristics and distinctions come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations. The present invention has not been evaluated under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary with variations in environment without a change in the genotype of the plant.
The FIGURE shows flowers and foliage in April in Canby, Oreg.
The following is a detailed description of the new Pulmonaria hybrid based on observations of 1.5-2-year-old field-grown specimens in Canby, Oreg. The color descriptions are all based on the The Royal Horticultural Society Color Chart.

Pulmonaria longifolia ‘Bertram Anderson’ (pod parent) has small, cobalt-blue flowers, typical of Pulmonaria longifolia, and Pulmonaria ‘Leopard’ (pollen parent of hybrid origin) has large, widely splayed flowers with a similar range of color as Pulmonaria “Raspberry Splash”. Pulmonaria ‘Leopard’ has a much lower growth habit, similar to Pulmonaria saccharata.
