Abstract
A new and distinct hybrid of Heuchera plant characterized by rust colored new growth, changing to tan and olive green colored leaves with yellow green colored flowers on burgundy flowering stems, a mounding habit, and excellent vigor.
Description
Botanical denomination: Heuchera hybrida.
Variety designation: ‘TNHEU041’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Heuchera hybrida and given the cultivar name of ‘TNHEU041’. Heuchera is in the family Saxifragaceae. Heuchera ‘TNHEU041’ originated as a cross of Heuchera ‘Amber Waves’, U.S. Plant Pat. No.13,348, as the seed parent and an unknown pollen parent. Pollen from selected, experimental, proprietary plants was massed and used as the pollen parent.
This new Heuchera is distinguished by:
-
- 1. Rust colored spring foliage maturing to olive green summer and winter foliage.
- 2. Small yellow green flowers in a wand type arrangement on dark peduncles.
- 3. Mounding habit.
- 4. Excellent vigor.
This new cultivar has been reproduced only by asexual propagation (division and tissue culture). Each of the progeny exhibits identical characteristics to the original plant. Asexual propagation by division and tissue culture using standard microprogation techniques with terminal and lateral shoots, as done in Canby, Oreg., shows that the foregoing characteristics and distinctions come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations. The present invention has not been evaluated under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary with variations in environment without a change in the genotype of the plant.
The photos show two examples of the foliage of a one-year old plant of Heuchera ‘TNHEU041’ growing in one gallon containers in the shade house in Canby, Oreg. FIG. 1 was taken in May and FIG. 2 was taken in September.
The following is a detailed description of the new Heuchera cultivar based on observations taken in June of a three-year-old specimen grown in the ground in an open air shade house with 50% shade cover and added irrigation in the summer months in Canby Oreg. Canby is Zone 8 on the USDA Hardiness map. Temperatures range from a high of 95 degrees F. in August to 32 degrees F. in January. Normal rainfall in Canby is 42.8 inches per year. The color descriptions are all based on The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart.
