Abstract
A new cultivar of Santolina named ‘Sant101’ that is distinguished by prostrate mounding habit, golden-yellow flowers, and grey-green to green finely dissected aromatic foliage. In combination these traits set ‘Sant101’ apart from all other existing varieties of Santolina known to the inventor.
Description
Genus: Santolina.
Species: pinnata×chamaecyparissus.
Denomination: Sant101.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of lavender cotton, an evergreen sub-shrub that is grown for use as an ornamental landscape plant. The new invention is known botanically as Santolina×hybrida and will be referred to hereinafter by the cultivar name ‘Sant101’. ‘Sant101’ will be marketed under the trade name “Shades of Jade”. Santolina is in the family Compositae, under which the commonly referred to “flower” is actually the inflorescence, and made up of smaller ray flowers and disc florets. The ray flowers are what look like “petals”. For ease of clarification the common term “flower” is used herein to describe the inflorescence.
‘Sant101’ is a hybrid plant, bred by the inventor in New Zealand. After being interested in Santolinas for twenty years, and attempting to germinate seed without success, the inventor cross-pollinated two Santolina plants to produce a new hybrid for commercial use. From the several seedlings that resulted, the inventor selected the new cultivar ‘Sant101’, for its unique habit and flower color. The selection was made in 1998 in a cultivated area of Christchurch, New Zealand. The female parent plant is an unknown or unnamed plant (possibly not a described cultivar) of the species Santolina pinnata subsp. neapolitana (unpatented) and the male parent plant is Santolina chamaecyparissus ‘Lemon Queen’ (unpatented). The closest comparison plants are the parent plants. ‘Sant101’ is distinguishable from Santolina pinnata subsp. neapolitana by green colored foliage. ‘Sant101’ is distinguishable from ‘Lemon Queen’ by larger flowers, that are golden-yellow in color as opposed to the lemon-yellow flowers of ‘Lemon Queen’. The prostrate, mounding habit is not typical of the parents, which grow into large rounded bushes.
The distinguishing characteristics of ‘Sant101’ are prostrate mounding habit and golden-yellow flowers. ‘Sant101’ also produces large flowers, and delicate cut leaf foliage that exhibits various shades of grey-green to green throughout the summer months. Blooming occurs from mid summer into fall. Cultural requirements include full sun, little or no to moderate water and any well-draining soil. Hardiness is classified as USDA Zone 7.
The first asexual reproduction of ‘Sant101’ was accomplished by the inventor in 1998 in a cultivated area of Christchurch, New Zealand. The method used was softwood cuttings. Since that time subsequent generations have been determined stable and true to type.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and represent the distinguishing characteristics of the new Santolina cultivar ‘Sant101’. These traits in combination distinguish ‘Sant101’ from all other existing varieties of Santolina known to the inventor. ‘Sant101’ has not been tested under all possible conditions and phenotypic differences may be observed with variations in environmental, climatic, and cultural conditions, however, without any variance in genotype.
1. Santolina ‘Sant101’ is an evergreen sub-shrub.
2. Santolina ‘Sant101’ exhibits a prostrate mounding habit.
3. Santolina ‘Sant101’ exhibits large bright golden-yellow flowers.
4. The foliage of Santolina ‘Sant101’ is fragrant and exhibits various shades of grey-green to green during the summer months.
5. Santolina ‘Sant101’ exhibits delicate cut leaf foliage.
6. Santolina ‘Sant101’ is 38 cm. in height and 40 cm. in width in a 2-liter container, and 100 cm. in width and 50 cm. in height at maturity.
7. Santolina ‘Sant101’ is used as an ornamental in raised beds, low edgings, rock gardens and herb gardens.
8. Santolina ‘Sant101’ is reproduced asexually using softwood cuttings.
9. Santolina ‘Sant101’ is hardy to USDA Zone 7.
The accompanying drawings illustrate the overall appearance of the new Santolina plant ‘Sant101’ showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the drawings may differ from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description, which accurately describes the actual colors of the new variety ‘Sant101’. The plants were 12-15 months old at the time and planted in the ground from 2-liter containers grown in Arroyo Grande, Calif.
The drawing on sheet 1 shows an entire plant before bloom, and illustrates the neat mounding habit.
The drawing on sheet 2 shows a close-up of the plant, and illustrates the finely dissected gray-green foliage.
The drawing on sheet 3 shows the entire plant in the early stages of bloom. This drawing shows ‘Sant101’ labeled as “Shades of Jade” which is the designated trade name of ‘Sant101’.
The drawing on the sheet 4 illustrates a close-up view of a single flower.
Drawings were made using conventional techniques and although flower and foliage colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance, they are as accurate as possible by conventional photography.
The following is a detailed botanical description of the new Santolina cultivar ‘Sant101’. Observations, measurements, values and comparisons were made in Arroyo Grande Calif. from 12-month-old plants in 2-liter containers and grown out-of-doors. Color determinations are made in accordance with The 2001 Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart from London England, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. In the Compositae family, under which Santolina is classified, the commonly referred to “flower” is actually the inflorescence, and made up of smaller ray flowers and disc florets. For ease of clarification the common term “flower” is used here to designate a category of description. Under this category is the detailed botanical description of the parts of the inflorescence, which is commonly referred to as the “flower” of this plant.
