Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of ×Heucherella plant substantially as shown and described, characterized by its distinctive soft yellow to lime green foliage with speckles of maroon along the veins and distinctive lobing.
Description
Botanical denomination: ×Heucherella sp.
Variety designation: ‘HERTN041’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct intergeneric hybrid between Heuchera and Tiarella, and botanically called ×Heucherella. This new variety is given the cultivar name ‘HERTN041’. Both genera, Heuchera and Tiarella, are of the family Saxifragaceae.
The claimed plant resulted from crossing Heuchera ‘Amber Waves’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 13,348), as the seed parent, with massed pollen from a group of experimental, proprietary Tiarella hybrids. As such, the exact pollen parent is unknown.
This new Heucherella is unique in its soft yellow foliage with specked, maroon markings along the main veins and is also characterized by:
-
- 1. Small, 5-lobed leaves.
- 2. Unusual white flowers on numerous, short stalks.
The new variety has been reproduced only by sexual 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 micropropagation 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 following is a detailed description of the new ×Heucherella hybrid based on observations 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 an average of 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.
