Abstract

A new and distinct Coreopsis cultivar named ‘DECOREO16’ is disclosed, characterized by early blooming of fully double flowers that are all at the same height. The new variety has very compact and mounded habit and short peduncles. The new variety is a Coreopsis, normally produced as an outdoor garden or container plant.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: Coreopsis grandiflora.
Variety denomination: ‘DECOREO16’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The new Coreopsis cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor, Gavriel Danziger, in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel. The objective of the breeding program was to produce new Coreopsis varieties for ornamental commercial applications. The cross resulting in this new variety was made during July of 2009.
The seed parent is the unpatented, proprietary seedling variety referred to as Coreopsis grandiflora ‘co-9-564’ The pollen parent is unknown as it was an open pollination breeding program. The new variety was discovered in July of 2010 by the inventor in a group of seedlings resulting from the 2009 crossing, in a research greenhouse in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar was performed by vegetative cuttings. This was first performed at a research greenhouse in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel in February of 2011 and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type in more than 100 successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘DECOREO16’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, day length, 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 ‘DECOREO16’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘DECOREO16’ as a new and distinct Coreopsis cultivar:
    • 1. Very compact and mounded habit.
    • 2. Early flowering.
    • 3. Short peduncle.
    • 4. Perfect fully doubled flower.
    • 5. All the flowers are of similar height.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DECOREO16’ are similar to plants of the seed parent, Coreopsis grandiflora ‘co-9-564’ in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘DECOREO16’ produces a fully double flower compared to the semi double flower of seed parent ‘co-9-564’. Additionally ‘DECOREO16’ produces a more compact plant habit as well as shorter peduncles and blooms earlier than seed parent ‘co-9-564’.
COMMERCIAL COMPARISON
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DECOREO16’ are comparable to the variety Coreopsis ‘Sundancer’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 7,823. The two Coreopsis varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, the new variety ‘DECOREO16’ differs in producing a more compact and mounded plant habit and fully double flowers compared to the spreading plant habit and semi double flowers of the comparator. Additionally, ‘DECOREO16’ produces a shorter peduncle than those of the comparator.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DECOREO16’ are comparable to the variety Coreopsis ‘Walcoreop’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,299. The two Coreopsis varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, the new variety ‘DECOREO16’ differs in producing a more compact and mounded plant habit and fully double flowers compared to the spreading plant habit and semi double flowers of the comparator. Additionally, ‘DECOREO16’ produces a shorter peduncle than those of the comparator.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘DECOREO16’ grown in a greenhouse, in a 12 cm pot. Age of the plant photographed is approximately 8 weeks from a rooted cutting.
FIG. 2 illustrates in full color a close up of a typical bloom of ‘DECOREO16’.
The photographs were taken using conventional techniques and although colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance it is as accurate as possible by conventional photographic techniques.
