Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Hypericum plant named ‘Kolmawhi’, characterized by its upright and columnar plant habit; moderately vigorous growth habit; dark green-colored leaves; uniform and freely flowering habit; uniform and high density of fruits; pale yellow-colored fruits; and resistance to Puccinia rust.
Description
Botanical designation: Hypericum×inodorum.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Kolmawhi’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Hypericum, botanically known as Hypericum×inodorum and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Kolmawhi’.
The new Hypericum plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Heelsum, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program is to create new Hypericum cultivars with strong foliage and numerous attractive fruits.
The new Hypericum plant originated from a cross-pollination in 2003 in Heelsum, The Netherlands of a proprietary selection of Hypericum×inodorum identified as code number 84-2, not patented, as the female, or seed parent with a proprietary selection of Hypericum×inodorum identified as code number 88-5, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Hypericum was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in Heelsum, The Netherlands in 2005.
Asexual reproduction of the new Hypericum plant by vegetative cuttings in Boskoop, The Netherlands since 2006 has shown that the unique features of this new Hypericum plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the new Hypericum have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment 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 ‘Kolmawhi’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Kolmawhi’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Hypericum:
-
- 1. Upright and columnar plant habit.
- 2. Moderately vigorous growth habit.
- 3. Dark green-colored leaves.
- 4. Uniform and freely flowering habit; uniform and high density of fruits.
- 5. Pale yellow-colored fruits.
- 6. Resistant to Puccinia rust.
Plants of the new Hypericum differ from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Hypericum have stronger stems than plants of the female parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Hypericum are more freely flowering than plants of the female parent selection.
- 3. Plants of the new Hypericum and the female parent selection differ in fruit color as plants of the female parent selection have cream-colored fruits.
Plants of the new Hypericum differ from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Hypericum have darker green-colored leaves than plants of the male parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Hypericum and the male parent selection differ in fruit color as plants of the male parent selection have pale green-colored fruits.
- 3. Plants of the new Hypericum are resistant to Puccinia rust whereas plants of the male parent selection are susceptible to Puccinia rust.
Plants of the new Hypericum can be compared to plants of the Hypericum ‘White Condor’, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons, conducted in Boskoop, The Netherlands, plants of the new Hypericum differed from plants of ‘White Condor’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Hypericum were more vigorous than plants of ‘white Condor’.
- 2. Plants of the new Hypericum were more uniform than plants of ‘White Condor’.
- 3. Plants of the new Hypericum and ‘White Condor’ differed in fruit color as plants of ‘White Condor’ had cream-colored fruits.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new cultivar, 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 actual colors of the new Hypericum.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a top perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Kolmawhi’.
The photograph at the top of the second sheet is a close-up view of a typical flower with developing fruit of ‘Kolmawhi’; the photograph at the bottom of the second sheet is a close-up view of a typical leaf of ‘Kolmawhi’.
The photograph on the third sheet is a close-up view of a typical fruit of ‘Kolmawhi’.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. Plants used for the aforementioned photographs and following description were grown for two years under conditions which closely approximate commercial Hypericum production conditions in an outdoor nursery in Boskoop, The Netherlands. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 12° C. to 30° C. and night temperatures ranged from 5° C. to averaged 16° C.
