Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Tiarella plant characterized by medium size, palmately-lobed leaves, with the terminal lobe the longest, an extremely good trailing habit, low inflorescence number for a cleaner look, distinct, dark brown markings following the veins, and excellent vigor.
Description
Botanical denomination: Tiarella spp.
Variety designation: ‘Oregon Trail’.
Cross Reference to siblings: Tiarella ‘Cascade Creeper’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,925) and Tiarella ‘Happy Trails’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,933).
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of a hardy herbaceous perennial of the genus Tiarella, and known by the cultivar name ‘Oregon Trail’. The genus Tiarella is a member of the family Saxifragaceae.
The new cultivar originated from a planned breeding program as a cross between Tiarella 27-04, a proprietary, unreleased trailing Tiarella as the seed parent and massed proprietary trailing Tiarella as the pollen parent. The exact pollen parent is unknown. Compared to Tiarella ‘Happy Trails’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,933), the new cultivar has bigger leaves that are more deeply cut.
Compared to Tiarella ‘Cascade Creeper’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,925), the new cultivar has fewer flowers, smaller leaves, different leaf lobing, and trails more rapidly.
This plant is uniquely characterized by the following:
-
- 1. medium size, palmately-lobed leaves, with the terminal lobe the longest;
- 2. an extremely good trailing habit;
- 3. low inflorescence number for a cleaner look;
- 4. distinct, dark brown markings following the veins; and
- 5. excellent vigor.
The new variety has been reproduced only by asexual propagation (division and micropropagation). Each of the progeny exhibits identical characteristics to the original plant. Asexual propagation by division and micropropagation using standard techniques with terminal and lateral shoots as done in Canby, Oreg., shows that the foregoing characteristics and distinctions come true to form and are established and transmitted through succeeding propagations. The present invention has not been evaluated under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary with variations in environment without a change in the genotype of the plant.
The following is a detailed description of the new Tiarella cultivar based on observations of one-year-old plants grown together in one gallon containers in a cool greenhouse in March in Canby, Oreg. Canby is Zone 8 on the USDA Hardiness map. Temperatures range from a high of 95 degrees F. in August to an average low of 32 degrees F. in January. Normal rainfall in Canby is 42.8 inches per year. The color descriptions are all based on The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 5th edition.
