Abstract

A new cultivar of Clematis named ‘Zoang’, characterized by its free-flowering habit with flowers that are a strong red-purple color in spring and almost white with a strong red-purple stripe in summer with little fading, it climbing plant habit, and its cold hardiness to at least U.S.D.A. Zone 6.

Description

Botanical classification: Clematis hybrid.
Variety denomination: ‘Zoang’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Clematis if hybrid origin (Patens Group) and will be referred to hereafter by its cultivar name ‘Zoang’. ‘Zoang’ is grown as an herbaceous climbing plant for use in the landscape or as a flowering potted plant for the terrace.
‘Zoang’ derived from an ongoing breeding program by the inventor in his nursery in Boskoop, The Netherlands. The goal of the selection was to select a hardy climber with uniquely colored flowers that could be grown for different purposes in the garden. ‘Zoang’ was selected in 2003 and arose from a controlled cross made in 1999 between the female parent, Clematis ‘Mrs. George Jackman’ (not patented) and the male parent, Clematis ‘Andromeda’ (not patented).
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar was first accomplished by internodial stem cuttings under the direction of the inventor in Boskoop, The Netherlands in 2003. The characteristics of this cultivar have been determined to be stable and are reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and represent the characteristics of the new cultivar as grown outdoors and observed for five years in Boskoop, The Netherlands. These attributes in combination distinguish ‘Zoang’ from other cultivars of Clematis known to the inventor.
    • 1. ‘Zoang’ exhibits upright flowers that are deep red-purple in color in spring and becoming near white with a red-purple stripe in summer.
    • 2. ‘Zoang’ blooms in spring and even more abundantly in summer.
    • 3. ‘Zoang’ has flowers with a very strong tepal color that fades very little.
    • 4. ‘Zoang’ exhibits a climbing growth habit.
    • 5. ‘Zoang’ is cold hardy to at least U.S.D.A. Zone 6.
‘Zoang’ differs from its female parent, ‘Mrs. George Jackman’, in having flowers that are striped with a red-purple color rather than white. ‘Zoang’ differs from its male parent, ‘Andromeda’, in having flowers that are heavily striped with red-purple rather than white flowers with a small amount of red-purple stripes. ‘Zoang’ can be most closely compared to the cultivars ‘Nelly Moser’ (not patented) and ‘Dr. Ruppel’ (not patented). ‘Nelly Moser’ differs from ‘Zoang’ in having larger flowers that are less abundant in the second flush and stamens and pistils that are red in color. ‘Dr. Ruppel’ differs from ‘Zoang’ in having larger flowers and tepals that are orchid-purple with red-purple centers rather than white with red-purple centers.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance and distinct characteristics of the new Clematis. The photographs were taken of three year-old plants of ‘Zoang’ as grown in one-gallon containers in Boskoop, The Netherlands.
The photograph in FIG. 1 shows the habit in bloom in the summer.
The photograph in FIG. 2 shows the stamens and pistil in a summer flower.
The photograph in FIG. 3 shows the back of the flower.
The photograph in FIG. 4 shows a growing plant.
The photograph in FIG. 5 shows spring flowers.
The photograph in FIG. 6 shows summer flowers.
The colors in the photographs are as close as possible with the digital photography techniques available, the color values cited in the detailed botanical description accurately describe the colors of the new Clematis.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The following is a detailed description of three year-old plants of ‘Zoang’ as grown outdoors in one-gallon containers under full sun at a nursery in Boskoop, The Netherlands. The phenotype of the new cultivar may vary with variations in environmental, climatic, and cultural conditions, as it has not been tested under all possible environmental conditions. The color determination is in accordance with The 2001 R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
