Abstract

A new and distinct cultivated variety of Campanula takesimana plant characterized by a unique combination of stellate, white blooms, with ligulate petals, and rhomboidal to elliptical, glossy, green foliage.

Description

The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivated variety of Campanula takesimana, of the family Campanulaceae, which originated as a unknown mutation of Campanula takesimana. The instant plant was discovered by the applicant in the garden of a friend in S. Korea. The plant was subsequently given to the applicant as a gift.
This new variety has been reproduced only by asexual propagation via division and tissue culture. Each of the progeny exhibits identical characteristics to the original plant.
This plant is characterized by the following:
1. Unique stellate floewr shape unlike any other Campanulas known to the applicant.
2. White flowers.
3. Green, glabrous, glossy, leathery foliage.
4. Unusual rhomboidal to elliptical-shaped foliage unlike the cordate-shaped leaves of the species.
Asexual propagation by division and tissue culture as done in Canby, Oreg., and Kingston, Wash., 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

DESCRIPTION OF PARENT PLANTS
The instant plant resulted from an unknown mutation of Campanula takesimana. Campanula takesimana, as described in Botanica's Annuals & Perennials (1999), has “unusually long bell-shaped flowers, satiny creamy white to lilac-pink outside but spotted with darker purple-brown inside. The large leaves form loose basal rosettes, and the roots tend to spread so the plant forms a large clump. The flowering stems are up to 3 ft long but are usually weak and reclining. The cultivar ‘Alba’ has white flowers.” The instant plant differs from Campanula takesimana in having star-shaped flowers, with strap-like petals, instead of bell-shaped flowers. The instant plant also differs in having rhomboidal to elliptical-shaped leaves instead of cordate-shaped leaves that are observed on the species.
