Abstract

A new plant variety of Lonicera×brownii characterized by its bright yellow flowers.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of Lonicera×brownii (Regel) Carriere which was discovered as a branch sport in a controlled planting of Lonicera×brownii ‘Dropmore Scarlet’ by Mr. Stephen Hlubik, in Vacaville, Calif. The varietal denomination of the new variety is ‘KRISTIN'S GOLD’.
The genus Lonicera is included in the family Caprifoliaceae which comprises about 15 genera of shrubs growing in the northern and southern hemispheres. Lonicera comprises over 200 species of deciduous or evergreen shrubs, many of which possess desirable ornamental characteristics. Lonicera×brownii is a hybrid of Lonicera sempervirens and Lonicera hirsuta (Eaton). The typical form of the cross took place in 1853. It generally is a deciduous shrub or vine growing to 3 meters tall. Leaves are elliptic, blue green and pubescent on the underside, and opposite on the stems. Flowers typically bloom in the spring and summer.
Flowers of Lonicera×brownii are somewhat “2 lipped”, in auxiliary pairs subtended by 2 bracts and 4 bractlets in sessile whorls at the ends of the branches. Known cultivars include ‘Fuchsioides’ with flowers that are scarlet on the outside; ‘Plantierensis’ with coral red flowers with scarlet lobes; ‘Punicea’ with orange-red flowers; ‘Dropmore Scarlet’ with bright scarlet flowers; and ‘Youngii’ with deep crimson red flowers.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new variety was discovered as a branch sport in a controlled planting of Lonicera×brownii ‘Dropmore Scarlet’ and differs from its parent in having bright yellow flowers. Asexual reproduction of the new variety by stem cuttings, performed in Vacaville, Calif. have confirmed that the distinctive characteristics of the new variety are stable and transmitted to succeeding generations, and the new variety reproduces true to type.
COMPARISON WITH PARENTS
‘KRISTIN'S GOLD’ is distinguished from its parent and all other varieties of Lonicera×brownii of which I am aware in having bright yellow flowers, in contrast to the crimson to orange-red flowers of its parent.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATIONS
The accompanying photographic illustrations show a specimen of the new cultivar as true to color as is reasonably possible to make in an illustration of this character.
First sheet illustrates interior parts of the flower of ‘KRISTIN'S GOLD’.
Second sheet illustrates exterior parts of the flower of ‘KRISTIN'S GOLD’.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW VARIETY
‘KRISTIN'S GOLD’ has not been observed under all possible environmental, cultural, and light conditions. The following observations and descriptions are of plants grown in containers at Vacaville, Calif. In this description, color references are to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart(1995) and terminology used in the color descriptions herein refers to plate numbers in this color chart. Phenotypic expression may vary with light intensity, cultural, and environmental conditions.
