Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Albizia plant named ‘Nurcar 10’, characterized by its upright plant habit with outwardly arching lateral branches; vigorous growth habit; developing foliage greyed green in color becoming dark greyed purple with development; dark foliage color is retained during the summer and autumn; and good garden performance.
Description
Botanical designation: Albizia julibrissin.
Cultivar denomination: ‘NURCAR 10’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Albizia plant, botanically known as Albizia julibrissin and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Nurcar 10’.
The new Albizia plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in North Augusta, S.C. The objective of the breeding program is to develop new Albizia plants with dark-colored foliage that is maintained during the summer and autumn.
The new Albizia plant originated from a self-pollination conducted by the Inventor in June, 2003 of Albizia julibrissin ‘Red Leaf’, not patented. The new Albizia plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single plant within the progeny of the stated self-pollination in a controlled environment in North Augusta, S.C. in November, 2003.
Asexual reproduction of the new Albizia plant by chip-budding in an outdoor nursery in Belvedere, Tenn. since January, 2006, has shown that the unique features of this new Albizia plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
Plants of the new Albizia 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 ‘Nurcar 10’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Nurcar 10’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Albizia:
-
- 1. Upright plant habit with outwardly arching lateral branches.
- 2. Vigorous growth habit.
- 3. Developing foliage is greyed green in color becoming dark greyed purple with development.
- 4. Dark foliage color is retained during the summer and autumn.
- 5. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Albizia can be compared to plants of the parent, ‘Red Leaf’. Plants of the new Albizia differ from plants of ‘Red Leaf’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Leaflets of plants of the new Albizia develop their dark greyed purple color earlier than plants of ‘Red Leaf’.
- 2. Fully expanded leaflets of the new Albizia are slightly darker in color than fully expanded leaflets of ‘Red Leaf’.
- 3. Dark leaflet color of plants of the new Albizia is retained during the summer and autumn whereas leaflet color of plants of ‘Red Leaf’ fades during the summer and autumn.
Plants of the new Albizia can be compared to plants of the Albizia julibrissin ‘Summer Chocolate’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 13,822. Plants of the new Albizia differ from plants of ‘Summer Chocolate’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Leaflets of plants of the new Albizia develop their dark greyed purple color earlier than plants of ‘Summer Chocolate’.
- 2. Fully expanded leaflets of the new Albizia are slightly darker in color than fully expanded leaflets of ‘Summer Chocolate’.
- 3. Dark leaflet color of plants of the new Albizia is retained during the summer and autumn whereas leaflet color of plants of ‘Summer Chocolate’ fades during the summer and autumn.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Albizia plant, 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 Albizia plant. The photographs were taken during the late summer and plants were grown under similar conditions as the plants used for the description.
The photograph on the first sheet is a side perspective view of a typical one-year old plant of ‘Nurcar 10’ grown in a three-quart container.
The photograph on the second sheet is a comparative close-up view of a typical lateral branch of ‘Nurcar 10’ (top) and a typical lateral branch of ‘Summer Chocolate’ (bottom).
The photograph on the third sheet is a close-up view of typical inflorescences of ‘Nurcar 10’.
The following observations, measurements and values describe plants of the new Albizia grown in 5-gallon containers in Aiken County, S.C. during the late summer in an outdoor nursery and under conditions which closely approximate commercial production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 31° C. to 41° C. and night temperatures ranged from 20° C. to 24° C. Plants were two years old when the description was taken. In the description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
