Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Cornus plant named ‘Farrow’, characterized by its compact upright plant habit; freely basal branching habit; dense and bushy appearance; and red-colored stems.
Description
Botanical designation: Cornus baileyii.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Farrow’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Cornus, grown as an ornamental shrub, botanically known as Cornus baileyii and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Farrow’.
The new Cornus is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Earleville, Md. The objective of the breeding program was to develop new Cornus cultivars with improved growth habit.
The new Cornus originated from an open-pollination during the summer of 2001 of an unnamed seedling selection of Cornus baileyii, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with an unknown selection of Cornus baileyii. The new Cornus was discovered and selected by the Inventor from within the progeny of the stated open-pollination in a controlled environment in Earleville, Md. during the summer of 2002.
Asexual reproduction of the new Cornus by softwood cuttings in a controlled environment in Earleville, Md., has shown that the unique features of this new Cornus are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar Farrow has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment and cultural practices such as temperature and light intensity without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Farrow’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Farrow’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Cornus:
-
- 1. Compact upright plant habit.
- 2. Freely basal branching habit; dense and bushy appearance.
- 3. Red-colored stems.
Plants of the new Cornus differ from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Cornus are more compact than and not as leggy as plants of the female parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Cornus are more freely branching and denser than plants of the female parent selection.
Plants of the new Cornus can also be compared to plants of the cultivar Bailey's Dogwood, not patented. Plants of the new Cornus differ from plants of the cultivar Bailey's Dogwood in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Cornus are more compact and denser than and not as leggy and open as plants of the cultivar Bailey's Dogwood.
- 2. Plants of the new Cornus are more freely basal branching than plants of the cultivar Bailey's Dogwood.
- 3. Plants of the new Cornus have shorter internodes than plants of the cultivar Bailey's Dogwood.
- 4. Plants of the new Cornus have smaller leaves than plants of the cultivar Bailey's Dogwood.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Cornus, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. 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 Cornus.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical plant of ‘Farrow’ grown during the summer in an outdoor nursery.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet is a side perspective view of a typical plant of ‘Farrow’ grown during the winter in an outdoor nursery.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown in Grand Haven, Mich., under commercial practice in an outdoor nursery. Plants had been growing for about 3.5 years when the photographs and description were taken. 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.
