Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Hydrangea plant named ‘Bokraplume’, characterized by its compact and outwardly spreading plant habit; and inflorescences with white-colored flowers that with development become red purple in color.

Description

Botanical designation: Hydrangea paniculata.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Bokraplume’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Hydrangea plant, botanically known as Hydrangea paniculata and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Bokraplume’.
The new Hydrangea plant is the product of an open-pollination occurring in July, 2003 in Boskoop, The Netherlands. The female, or seed, parent is an unnamed seedling selection of Hydrangea paniculata, not patented and the male, or pollen, parent is an unknown selection of Hydrangea paniculata. The new Hydrangea was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated open-pollination in a controlled environment in Boskoop, The Netherlands during the summer of 2005.
Asexual reproduction of the new Hydrangea plant by vegetative cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Boskoop, The Netherlands since the summer of 2005, has shown that the unique features of this new Hydrangea plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the new Hydrangea have 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 ‘Bokraplume’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Bokraplume’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Hydrangea:
    • 1. Compact and outwardly spreading plant habit.
    • 2. Inflorescences with white-colored flowers that become red purple in color with development.
Plants of the new Hydrangea differ from plants of the female parent selection primarily in plant habit as plants of the new Hydrangea are more compact than plants of the female parent selection.
Plants of the new Hydrangea can be compared to plants of Hydrangea ‘Bokratorch’, disclosed in a U.S. Plant Pat. application Ser. No. 12/315,155. Plants of the new Hydrangea differ primarily from plants of ‘Bokratorch’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Hydrangea are not as broad as plants of ‘Bokratorch’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Hydrangea have larger panicles than plants of ‘Bokratorch’.
    • 3. Plants of the new Hydrangea and ‘Bokratorch’ differ in sterile flower color.
Plants of the new Hydrangea can be compared to plants of Hydrangea ‘Kyushu’, not patented. Plants of the new Hydrangea differ primarily from plants of ‘Kyushu’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Hydrangea are more compact than plants of ‘Kyushu’.
    • 2. Flowers of plants of the new Hydrangea become red purple in color with development whereas flowers of plants of ‘Kyushu’ become off-white to brown with development.
Plants of the new Hydrangea can also be compared to plants of Hydrangea ‘Pink Diamond’, not patented. Plants of the new Hydrangea differ primarily from plants of ‘Pink Diamond’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Hydrangea are more compact than plants of ‘Pink Diamond’.
    • 2. Flowers of plants of the new Hydrangea become red purple in color with development whereas flowers of plants of ‘Pink Diamond’ become light red purple to purple pink with development.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the unique 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 from the color value cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Hydrangea.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical plant of ‘Bokraplume’ grown in an outdoor nursery.
The photograph on the second sheet is a close-up view of a typical leaf of ‘Bokraplume’.
The photograph at the top of the third sheet is a close-up view of a typical developing inflorescence of ‘Bokraplume’.
The photograph at the bottom of the third sheet is a close-up view of a typical developed inflorescence of ‘Bokraplume’.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
Plants used in the aforementioned photographs and in the following description were grown during the spring and summer in Boskoop, The Netherlands, in an outdoor nursery and under conditions which closely approximate commercial production conditions. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 14° C. to 30° C. and night temperatures ranged from 4° C. to 16° C. Plants of the new Hydrangea had been growing for four years when the photographs and description were taken.
