Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Hibiscus plant named ‘ILVO347’, characterized by its upright and outwardly spreading plant habit; vigorous growth habit; freely branching habit; freely flowering habit; large sterile orchid pink-colored flowers with dark red-colored centers; and good garden performance.
Description
Botanical designation: Hibiscus syriacus.
Cultivar denomination: ‘ILVO347’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Hibiscus plant, botanically known as Hibiscus syriacus, commercially known as Rose-of-Sharon or Althea, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘ILVO347’.
The new Hibiscus plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Melle, Belgium. The objective of the breeding program was to develop new sterile Hibiscus plants with uniform plant habit and unique flower coloration.
The new Hibiscus plant originated from a cross-pollination in 2000 of an unnamed proprietary selection of Hibiscus syriacus, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with Hibiscus syriacus ‘Red Heart’, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Hibiscus plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor in 2003 as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Melle, Belgium.
Asexual reproduction of the new Hibiscus plant by softwood cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Melle, Belgium since 2003 has shown that the unique features of this new Hibiscus plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
Plants of the new Hibiscus have not been observed under all possible combinations of environmental conditions and cultural practices. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environmental conditions 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 ‘ILVO347’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘ILVO347’ as a new and distinct Hibiscus plant:
-
- 1. Upright and outwardly spreading plant habit.
- 2. Vigorous growth habit.
- 3. Freely branching habit.
- 4. Freely flowering habit.
- 5. Large sterile orchid pink-colored flowers with dark red-colored centers.
- 6. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Hibiscus can be compared to plants of the female parent selection. Plants of the new Hibiscus differ primarily from plants of the female parent selection in flower color as plants of the female parent selection have white-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Hibiscus can be compared to plants of the male parent, ‘Red Heart’. Plants of the new Hibiscus differ primarily from plants of ‘Red Heart’ in flower color as plants of ‘Red Heart’ have white-colored flowers with red-colored centers. In addition, flowers of plants of the new Hibiscus are sterile whereas flowers of plants of ‘Red Heart’ are fertile and produce seeds.
Plants of the new Hibiscus can also be compared to plants of the Hibiscus syriacus ‘Minrosa’, disclosed in U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 09/642,987 (abandoned). In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Melle, Belgium, plants of the new Hibiscus differed primarily from plants of ‘Minrosa’ in flower color as plants of ‘Minrosa’ had pink-colored flowers with red-colored centers. In addition, flowers of plants of the new Hibiscus were sterile whereas flowers of plants of ‘Minrosa’ were fertile and produced seeds.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Hibiscus 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 Hibiscus plant.
The photograph on the first sheet is a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘ILVO347’ grown in a container.
The photograph on the second sheet is a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘ILVO347’ grown in a ground bed.
The photograph on the third sheet is a close-up view of a typical open flower and flower buds of ‘ILVO347’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown in one-gallon containers and in ground beds in Grand Haven, Mich. during the summer in a polypropylene-covered shadehouse and under cultural practices typical of commercial Hibiscus production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 18° C. to 27° C. and night temperatures ranged from ranged from 5° C. to 10° C. Plants were one year old when the description was taken. In the description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
