Description

BOTANICAL CLASSIFICATION/CULTIVAR DESIGNATION
Clematis L. cultivar New Love.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Clematis plant, botanically known as Clematis L., and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘New Love’.
The new cultivar originated from a random cross-pollination of two unidentified selections of Clematis L., not patented, in Boskoop, The Netherlands. The new cultivar was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny from this cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Boskoop, The Netherlands, in 1996.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by cuttings taken in Boskoop, The Netherlands, since 1997, has shown that the unique features of this new Clematis are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the cultivar New Love have 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 ‘New Love’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘New Love’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Clematis:
1. Upright and compact growth habit.
2. Strong stems.
3. Single violet-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Clematis differ primarily from plants of the unidentified parent selections primarily in flower color.
Plants of the new Clematis can be compared to plants of the Clematis heraclefolia cultivar Wyevale, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Boskoop, The Netherlands, plants of the new Clematis differed from of the cultivar Wyevale in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Clematis were more compact than plants of the cultivar Wyevale.
2. Flowers of plants of the new Clematis are darker violet in color than flowers of plants of the cultivar Wyevale.
3. Flowers of plants of the new Clematis are not as fragrant as flowers of plants of the cultivar Wyevale.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new cultivar, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photograph may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Clematis. The photograph comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘New Love’.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. Plants used for the photograph and the following description were about two years old and were grown in 1.5-liter containers in an outdoor nursery in Boskoop, The Netherlands. The following measurements and values represent averages taken from a group of typical flowering plants during the late summer.
