Abstract

A new Gaillardia plant, particularly distinguished by its orange-yellow flower color, early flowering without cold induction, and compact plant habit.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species of the plant claimed: Gaillardia aristata.
Varietal denomination: ‘Granoran’.
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention comprises a new distinct cultivar of Gaillardia, botanically known as Gaillardia aristata.
The new Gaillardia was not discovered but is a product of a planned breeding program conducted in Enkhuizen, Netherlands. The new Gaillardia cultivar is early flowering, has a compact plant habit, and an orange-yellow flower color.
The new Gaillardia is propagated by cuttings resulting from a single seedling. This seedling from a selection in Gaillardia aristata ‘Burgundy’ (not patented), identified as number ‘F3351.’ ‘Burgundy’ is a seed strain. A plant was selected in this strain and the seeds of this plant were harvested in the field. The female parent is known and the male parent is a “cloud” of pollen of the other plants. These seeds were sown and the same cycle was done: in this population one plant was selected and harvested, so pollinated again with a “cloud” of pollen. A third cycle was done the same way and the final seedling was selected. This took place from August 2000 until July 2002 in Enkhuizen, Netherlands. The seedling was selected in July 2003 in Enkhuizen in field conditions.
The present cultivar has been repeatedly asexually reproduced by cuttings in Enkhuizen, Netherlands, since 2003. The distinctive characteristics of this new Gaillardia are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The new Gaillardia plant is a perennial in zones 4 to 9 in the US.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The new Gaillardia plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawing which shows blooms, buds and foliage of the plant in full color, the color showing being as true as can be reasonably obtained by conventional photographic procedures.
 BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT
The following detailed descriptions set forth the distinctive characteristics of this new Gaillardia. The data which defines these characteristics were collected from asexual reproductions carried out in Enkhuizen, The Netherlands. The plant history was taken on 13 week old plants. The instant plant was grown in an 11 cm container in an outdoor container field.
Color references are primarily to the R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London.
Plants of the new Gaillardia differ primarily from the plants of the originator ‘Burgundy’ in the following characteristics:
Flowers of the new variety are yellow colored whereas flowers of the originator are deep red colored. Plants of the new variety flower very early without needing cold for flower induction, whereas plants of the originator flower late and need cold for flower induction.
