Abstract

A new and distinct hybrid of Pulmonaria plant characterized by a unique combination of white margins and a frosted, mottled appearance.

Description

The present invention relates to a new and distinct Pulmonaria, of the family Boraginaceae, which originated as a tissue culture mutation of a Pulmonaria named ‘Raspberry Splash’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,138). Due to the fact that the ‘Raspberry Splash’ and its parent plants are the result of crosses between several different Pulmonaria species, no species designations are given.
This new Pulmonaria is a result of careful screening for tissue culture sports. The new variety has been reproduced only by asexual propagation (division and tissue culture). Each of the progeny exhibits identical characteristics to the original plant.
This plant is characterized by the following:
1. White-edged variegation on lance shaped leaves.
2. Silver mottling of leaves with silvery overlay of the green, central leaf area.
Asexual propagation by division and tissue culture as 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.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The drawing shows Pulmonaria ‘Raspberry Ice’ in Canby, Oreg.

DESCRIPTION OF PARENT PLANTS
The instant plant resulted from a sport of Pulmonaria ‘Raspberry Splash’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,138). Pulmonaria ‘Raspberry Splash’ has lance-shaped, well-marked, dark green foliage and large bright raspberry-colored flowers. Pulmonaria ‘Raspberry Ice’ differs in having a white margin, a frosted, mottled appearance, and smaller flowers.
Compared to Pulmonaria rubra ‘David Ward’, an unpatented plant, Pulmonaria ‘Raspberry Ice’ has narrower leaves of a gray green color rather than yellow green, more mottling on the leaves, and raspberry rather than salmon colored flowers.
