Abstract
A new cultivar of Hebe plant named ‘Turkish Delight’ that is characterized by burgundy colored leaves, a compact growth habit and free branching.
Description
Botanical classification: Hebe mathewsii.
Variety denomination: ‘Turkish Delight’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Hebe plant botanically known as Hebe mathewsii and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Turkish Delight’.
‘Turkish Delight’ is a naturally occurring branch mutation of Hebe ‘Mrs. Winder’ (not patented). The cultivar ‘Turkish Delight’ was discovered by the inventor in April of 2002 in a cultivated area of Kihikihi, Wakato, New Zealand.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘Turkish Delight’ by terminal cuttings was first performed in March of 2003 in Kihikihi, Wakato, New Zealand. Since that time, under careful observation, the unique characteristics of the new cultivar have been uniform, stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The following represent the distinguishing characteristics of the new Hebe cultivar ‘Turkish Delight’. These traits in combination distinguish ‘Turkish Delight’ as a new and distinct cultivar.
-
- 1. Hebe ‘Turkish Delight’ exhibits burgundy colored leaves.
- 2. Hebe ‘Turkish Delight’ exhibits a compact growth habit.
- 3. Hebe ‘Turkish Delight’ exhibits free branching.
The new cultivar ‘Turkish Delight’ is distinguishable from the parent Hebe ‘Mrs. Winder’ by the following characteristics:
-
- 1. ‘Turkish Delight’ has burgundy leaves. The young leaves of ‘Mrs. Winder’ are green.
- 2. ‘Turkish Delight’ has a leaf length of 35 mm. The leaves of ‘Mrs. Winder’ are 25 mm is length.
- 3. ‘Turkish Delight’ has a mature leaf width of approximately 10 mm. The leaves of ‘Mrs. Winder’ have mature leaf width of approximately 6 mm.
The closest comparison cultivar is the parent plant Hebe ‘Mrs. Winder’.
The accompanying photograph illustrates the distinguishing traits of Hebe ‘Turkish Delight’. The plant in the photograph shows an overall view of an 18 month old plant. The photograph was taken using conventional techniques and although colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance it is as accurate as possible by conventional photographic techniques.
The following is a detailed description of the new Hebe cultivar named ‘Turkish Delight’. Data was collected in Kihikihi, Wakato, New Zealand from 18 month old outdoor grown plants in 6 Liter containers. The time of year was Winter and the daytime temperature ranged from 5-15° Centigrade. The nighttime temperature ranged from 1-8° Centigrade. The light level was natural outdoor light and there were no photoperiodic treatments. Color determinations are in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart 2001 edition, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The growing requirements are similar to the species. ‘Turkish Delight’ 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.
