Abstract
A new cultivar of Cordyline plant named ‘Salsa’ that is characterized by leaves that are linear in shape, initially erect then outwardly arching and dark red-purple in color with a pink midrib and pink margins.
Description
Botanical classification: Cordyline australis.
Variety denomination: ‘Salsa’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Cordyline australis and is hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Salsa’. The new cultivar was discovered by the inventor in a cultivated area of Kihikihi, Te Awamutu, New Zealand in 2007. The new cultivar was discovered as a single plant in a population of seed grown unidentified Cordyline australis cultivars. ‘Salsa’ was discovered in an indoor greenhouse. The exact parent plants are unknown.
The new cultivar was first asexually propagated by tissue culture in Auckland, New Zealand in 2010. Since that time, under careful observation, the unique characteristics of the new cultivar have been uniform, stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The new Cordyline ‘Salsa’ is distinguished from other known varieties of Cordyline, by the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Cordyline ‘Salsa’ exhibits leaves that are initially erect then outwardly arching.
- 2. Cordyline ‘Salsa’ exhibits linear shaped leaves
- 3. Cordyline ‘Salsa’ exhibits dark red-purple leaves with a pink midrib and pink margins.
The closest comparison cultivar is Cordyline ‘Midnight Star’ (not patented). ‘Salsa’ is distinguishable from ‘Midnight Star’ in having wider leaves and variegated leaves that are dark red-purple with a pink midrib and pink margins. In comparison, the leaves of ‘Midnight Star’ are brown with a grey-orange midrib. The leaves of ‘Salsa’ are larger in width than the leaves of ‘Midnight Star’.
The accompanying color photograph illustrates the distinguishing characteristics of the new cultivar ‘Salsa’.
The photograph shows an overall view of a 2 year old plant.
All photographs are taken using conventional photographic techniques and although foliage colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance, they are as accurate as possible by conventional photography.
The following is a detailed description of the Cordyline cultivar named ‘Salsa’. Data was collected in Kihikihi, Te Awamutu, New Zealand from 2 year old plants. The plants were grown outdoors in 2.5 liter containers under 30 percent shade house cover. The time of year was Spring in the Southern Hemisphere. Phenotypic differences may be observed with variations in environmental, climatic, and cultural conditions, without however, any difference in genotype. Color determinations are in accordance with The 2001 Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The growing requirements are similar to the species.
