Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Corylus plant named ‘Red Majestic’, characterized by its compact and outwardly spreading to semi-weeping plant habit; twisting stems; and rich dark burgundy-colored developing leaves and rich dark burgundy-colored fully expanded leaves during the spring and summer.
Description
Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Corylus avellana cultivar Red Majestic.
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Corylus plant, botanically known as Corylus avellana, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Red Majestic’.
The new Corylus originated from a chance cross-pollination in 1997 of two unidentified selections of Corylus avellena, not patented. The cultivar Red Majestic was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Bad Zwischenahn, Germany.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by softwood cuttings at Bad Zwischenahn, Germany since 1997, has shown that the unique features of this new Corylus are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Red Majestic’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Red Majestic’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
-
- 1. Compact and outwardly spreading to semi-weeping plant habit.
- 2. Twisting stems.
- 3. Rich dark burgundy-colored developing leaves and rich dark burgundy-colored fully expanded leaves during the spring and summer.
In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Grand Haven, Mich., plants of the new Corylus differed primarily from plants of the Corylus avellena cultivar Contorta, not patented, and other cultivars and selections of Corylus avellena known to the Inventor primarily in leaf coloration and plant size as plants of the cultivar Contorta and other cultivars and selections of Corylus avellena had green-colored leaves and were larger than plants of the new Corylus.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate 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.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical plant of ‘Red Majestic’.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet is a close-up view of typical leaves of ‘Red Majestic’.
Foliage colors in the photographs may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Corylus.
The cultivar Red Majestic 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 aforementioned photograph and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Grand Haven, Mich., under commercial practice in an outdoor nursery during the fall and spring. Plants used for the photographs and description were about four years old. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
