Abstract

A new compact clematis cultivar which displays single pale white flowers with pale violet margins. The cultivar is free flowering. The variety successfully propagates from softwood cuttings and traditional methods and is suitable for ornamental use in outdoor settings in a variety of climatic conditions. This new and distinct variety has shown to be uniform and stable in the resulting generations from asexual propagation.

Description

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention constitutes a new and distinct variety of clematis. The variety was discovered as a chance seedling of unknown parentage in a cultivated area. The variety is a member of the clematis patens group. The new variety is named ‘EVIrin’.
The following unique combination of characteristics that are outstanding in ‘EVIrin’ have been repeatedly observed in asexually propagated progeny and distinguish the variety from all other varieties of which we are aware:
1. Pale white to pale violet flowers with contrasting dark red centers,
2. Strongly undulated tepal margins,
4. Excellent flower production on compact flowering stems, and
5. Compact growth suitable for growing in containers.
These qualities required improvement in clematis varieties that were in commercial cultivation and have been substantially achieved in the new variety, as evidenced by the unique combination of characteristics that are present in ‘EVIrin’ which distinguish it from all other varieties of which we are aware.
‘EVIrin’ was selected by the inventors as a single plant from the progeny of the chance hybridization in their clematis development program in Domarie Vineries Les Sauvagees, St. Sampsons, Guernsey, Channel Islands, United Kingdom in 1990.
Asexual reproduction of ‘EVIrin’ by cuttings was first done by Raymond J. Evison and Mogens N. Olesen in Domarie Vineries Les Sauvagees, St. Sampsons, Guernsey, Channel Islands, United Kingdom in Summer, 1990. This initial and subsequent propagations have demonstrated that the characteristics of ‘EVIrin’ are true to type and are transmitted from one generation to the next.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The accompanying color illustration shows as true as is reasonably possible to obtain in color photographs of this type, the typical characteristics of the buds, flowers and leaves of the new variety, with different flowers shown in various stages of maturity. Specifically illustrated in SHEET 1:
1. Flower buds,
2. Half opened flower,
3. Recently opened flower bloom;
4. Mature flower bloom,
5. Open flower, reverse view of tepals,
6. Individual tepals, upper and reverse side view,
7. Foliage, leaf, and stem.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE VARIETY
The following is a detailed description of ‘EVIrin’, as observed in its growth throughout the flowering period in glasshouses at Domarie Vineries Les Sauvagees, St. Sampsons, Guernsey, Channel Islands, United Kingdom and in a field nursery in Jackson County, Ore. At these locations, the variety, a vine, exhibits a combination of woody and herbaceous growth. Certain phenotypical characteristics of the variety may vary under different environmental, cultural, agronomic, seasonal, and climatic conditions. Color references are made using The Royal Horticultural Society (London, England) Colour Chart, 1995; except where common terms of color are used.
For a comparison, the nearest existing clematis variety is ‘SNOW QUEEN’. Chart 1 details several physical characterstics of ‘EVIrin’ and ‘Snow Queen’, and unpatented Clematis variety.
