Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Baccharis plant named ‘Kolmsil’, characterized by its upright and outwardly spreading plant habit; freely branching growth habit; freely flowering habit; and discoid inflorescences.

Description

BOTANICAL CLASSIFICATION/CULTIVAR DESIGNATION
Baccharis halimifolia cultivar Kolmsil.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Baccharis plant, botanically known as Baccharis halimifolia, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Kolmsil’.
The new Baccharis was discovered as a cross-pollination of two unidentified selections of Baccharis halimifolia, not patented. The new Baccharis was discovered and selected by the Inventor in 1998 as a single flowering plant in a controlled environment in Boskoop, The Netherlands, within a population of the progeny resulting from the cross-pollination.
Asexual reproduction of the new Baccharis by cuttings was first conducted in Boskoop, The Netherlands in 1998. Since then, asexual reproduction by cuttings has shown that the unique features of this new Baccharis are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar Kolmsil has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature and light intensity without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Kolmsil’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Kolmsil’ as a new and distinct Baccharis:
1. Upright and outwardly spreading plant habit.
2. Freely branching growth habit.
3. Freely flowering habit.
4. Discoid inflorescences.
Plants of the new Baccharis differ primarily from plants of the parent selections and other known selections and cultivars of Baccharis in plant size, leaf size, foliage coloration, time to flower, and inflorescence coloration.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Baccharis showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Baccharis.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plants of ‘Kolmsil’ grown in an outdoor nursery.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet is a close-up view of a typical inflorescence of ‘Kolmsil’.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Boskoop, The Netherlands, in an outdoor nursery under full sun conditions. The photographs and the observations and measurements were taken in October, 2001; plants were about three years old. During the summer, day temperatures ranged from 14 to 27° C. and night temperatures ranged from 7 to 14° C. Color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
