Definitions
- the present invention relates to a new and distinct Cotoneaster cultivar of the evergreen type that is botanically known as Cotoneaster dammeri.
- the new cultivar is the result of the open pollination of the ‘Eichholz’ cultivar (non-patented in the United States) during 1994 at Dax (Les Austin), France.
- the male parent i.e., the pollen parent
- the male parent is unknown.
- the new cultivar well meets the needs of the horticultural industry and can be used to provide attractive green ornamentation in the landscape. It is particularly well suited for use as a dense ground cover.
- the very good tolerance to fire blight ( Erwinia amylovora ) is atypical for previously known Cotoneaster cultivars. Also, the winter hardiness is good with plants having withstood temperatures of ⁇ 10° C. and ⁇ 12° C. when growing in pots as well as in the field at Angers (Maine et Loire), France.
- Plants of the new cultivar can be readily distinguished from their ancestors and other previously known Cotoneaster cultivars.
- the ‘Eichholz’ cultivar displays substantially less tolerance to fire blight as well as considerably less erect branching.
- the new cultivar is more vigorous and more erect than the ‘Streibsfindling’ cultivar (non-patented in the United States), and displays an overall smaller growth habit than the ‘Stogholm’ cultivar (non-patented in the United States).
- the new cultivar of the present invention has been named ‘Belka’.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a typical mature four year-old plant while growing in a container. The erect branching is readily apparent.
- FIG. 2 illustrates typical three year-old plants while growing as a border in the landscape. The dense medium green foliage and creeping growth habit with erect branching are illustrated.
- FIG. 3 illustrates typical stems, and foliage together with bright red hips.
- FIG. 4 illustrates four typical bright red hips with tiny adhering peduncles.
- FIG. 5 illustrates the semi-glossy upper surface of a typical mature leaf.
- FIG. 6 illustrates the dull pubescent under surface of a typical mature leaf.
- FIG. 7 illustrates a typical young pubescent stem with foliage.
- FIG. 8 illustrates a typical mature marbled brown stem with some foliage also being visible.
- Plants of the new ‘Belka’ cultivar have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions to date. Accordingly, it is possible that the phenotypic expression may vary somewhat with changes in light intensity and duration, cultural practices, and other environmental conditions.
