Abstract
A new cultivar of hybrid Heuchera named ‘Van Gogh’, that is characterized by its compact plant habit with small leaves, its leaves that are yellow-green in color with red veins, its abundance of flowering stems extending straight up from the basal rosettes, and its deep pink flowers on dark red flowering stems.
Description
Botanical classification: Heuchera hybrid.
Cultivar designation: ‘Van Gogh’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Heuchera of hybrid origin, botanically known as a Heuchera and is hereinafter referred to by its cultivar name ‘Van Gogh’.
The new cultivar was discovered as a chance seedling in a trial field by the Inventor in Hantay, France in April of 2011. The trial field contained hundreds of cultivars and proprietary seedlings of Heuchera from the Inventor's breeding program. The exact parentage of ‘Van Gogh’ is therefore unknown.
Asexual propagation of the new cultivar was first accomplished under the direction of the Inventor by in vitro propagation initiated from meristem tissue in Rijswijk, The Netherlands in June of 2012. Asexual propagation of the new cultivar by in vitro propagation has determined that the characteristics of the new cultivar are stable and are reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and represent the characteristics of the new cultivar. These attributes in combination distinguish ‘Van Gogh’ as a new and unique cultivar of Heuchera.
-
- 1. ‘Van Gogh’ exhibits a compact plant habit with small leaves.
- 2. ‘Van Gogh’ exhibits leaves that are yellow-green in color with red veins.
- 3. ‘Van Gogh’ exhibits an abundance of tall flowering stems extending straight up from the basal rosettes.
- 4. ‘Van Gogh’ exhibits deep pink flowers on dark red flowering stems.
‘Van Gogh’ can be most closely compared to the Heuchera cultivars ‘Circus’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 25,495) and ‘Tiramisu’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,429). ‘Circus’ differs from ‘Van Gogh’ in having a less compact plant habit, in having young leaves that are less golden-yellow in color, and in having flowers that are lighter pink in color. ‘Tiramisu’ is similar to ‘Van Gogh’ in foliage coloration. ‘Tiramisu’ differs from ‘Van Gogh’ in having a less compact plant habit, in having less contrasting colors between the leaf blade and veins, and in having flowers that are white in color.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance and distinct characteristics of the new Heuchera. The photographs were taken of a plant three-years in age as grown in a garden bed in a poly covered unheated greenhouse in Hillegom, The Netherlands. The plant was placed in a container for the photograph.
The photograph in FIG.1 provides a side view of the plant habit of ‘Van Gogh’ in bloom.
The photograph in FIG. 2 provides a close-up view of an inflorescence of ‘Van Gogh’.
The photograph in FIG. 3 provides a close-up view of a leaf of ‘Van Gogh’.
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 Heuchera.
The following is a detailed description of three year-old plants of ‘Van Gogh’ as grown in a garden bed in a poly covered unheated greenhouse in Hillegom, 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 2007 R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
