Abstract

A new Clematis cultivar which is well suited to propagation in glasshouses. With a tall growth habit, profuse, purple flowers, and continuous summer flowering. The variety successfully propagates from softwood cuttings and is suitable for cultivation in commercial glasshouses. This new and distinct variety has shown to be uniform and stable in the resulting generations from propagation.

Description

Botanical classification: Clematis viticella.
Variety denomination: ‘EVIpo025’.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention constitutes a new and distinct variety of Clematis which originated from a controlled crossing between Clematis ‘Burma Star’, non-patented, and Clematis ‘Royal Velvet’ EVIfour, described in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,299 issued Oct. 28, 1994. The two parents were crossed and the resulting seed was planted in a controlled environment.
The new clematis may be distinguished from its male pollen parent, Clematis ‘Burma Star’, by the following combination of characteristics:
1. Average range of height for Clematis ‘Burma Star’ is 2 to 2.5 meters, while that of ‘EVIpo025’ is typically 1.5 to 2 meters.
2. Tepals of Clematis ‘Burma Star’ are typically Red-Purple Group 72, tepals of ‘EVIpo025’ are Violet Group 86.
The objective of the hybridization of this Clematis variety for commercial glasshouse and nursery culture was to create a new and distinct variety with unique qualities that this variety has:
1. Purple flowers.
2. Very free flowering.
3. Good repeat flowering.
4. Flowers well as a young plant.
5. Compact habit.
6. Good choice for small container use.
These qualities required improvement in Clematis varieties that were in commercial cultivation and the objectives have been substantially achieved in the new variety, as evidenced by the unique combination of characteristics that are present in ‘EVIpo025’ which distinguish it from all other varieties of which we are aware.
The seeds from the aforementioned hybridization were germinated and evaluations of the resulting seedling plants were conducted in a controlled environment. As a result, ‘EVIpo025’ was selected by Raymond J. Evison and Mogens N. Olesen in their Clematis development program in Domarie Vineries Les Sauvagees, St. Sampsons, Guernsey, Channel Islands, United Kingdom in 1998.
Asexual reproduction of ‘EVIpo025’ 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 1998. This initial and subsequent propagations have demonstrated that the characteristics of ‘EVIpo025’ are true to type and are transmitted from one generation to the next.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The accompanying color illustration show as true as is reasonably possible to obtain in color photographs of this type:
FIG. 1.1 Juvenile stem with petioles and attachment of flower bud;
FIG. 1.2 Mature compound leaf and leaflets;
FIG. 1.3 Flower bud and partially opened flower;
FIG. 1.4 Open flower, upper side;
FIG. 1.5 Open flower, lower side.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE VARIETY
The following is a detailed description of ‘EVIpo025’, as observed in its growth throughout the flowering period in 2 liter pots in an unheated glasshouse at Domarie Vineries Les Sauvagees, St. Sampsons, Guernsey, Channel Islands, United Kingdom. Observed plants are 2 years of age. Certain phenotypical characteristics of the variety may vary under different environmental, cultural, agronomic, seasonal, and climatic conditions. Color reference are made using The Royal Horticultural Society (London, England) Colour Chart, 2001.
For a comparison, the nearest existing Clematis variety is Clematis ‘Royal Velvet’ EVIfour, a patented variety described and illustrated in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,299 and issued on Oct. 28, 1994. Chart 1 details several physical characteristics of ‘EVIpo025’ and the comparison variety.
