Abstract
A new cultivar of Spiraea betulifolia, ‘COURISPI01’, that is characterized by compact plant habit, its flowers that are pink in color, and its re-blooming habit.
Description
Botanical classification: Spiraea betulifolia.
Variety denomination: ‘COURISPI01’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Spiraea, botanically known as Spiraea betulifolia ‘COURISPI01’ and will be referred to hereafter by its cultivar name, ‘COURISPI01’. ‘COURISPI01’ is a new variety of Spiraea for landscape use.
The new cultivar is the result of a controlled breeding program conducted by the Inventors in Moyenmoutier, France with the goal of developing new cultivars of Spiraea betulifolia with compact plant habits. The new cultivar arose from repeated selections by collecting open pollinated seed in three rounds of selections of proprietary seedlings from 2005 to 2007. The male is unknown.
Asexual propagation of the new cultivar was first accomplished by the Inventor by softwood stem cuttings in 2012 in Moyenmoutier, France. Asexual propagation of the new cultivar by softwood stem cuttings 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 ‘COURISPI01’ as a new and unique cultivar of Spiraea.
-
- 1. ‘COURISPI01’ exhibits a compact plant habit.
- 2. ‘COURISPI01’ exhibits flowers that are pink in color.
- 3. ‘COURISPI01’ exhibits re-blooming habit; flowering in May and re-blooming in August in France.
The female parent of ‘COURISPI01’, an unnamed proprietary seedling of Spiraea betulifolia differs from ‘COURISPI01’ in having a more compact plant habit, in having smaller flowers that are lighter pink in color, and lacking a re-blooming habit. Typical plants of the species Spiraea betulifolia exhibit white flowers. ‘COURISPI01’ can also be compared to Spiraea betulifolia cultivars including ‘Tor’ (not patented) and ‘Tor Gold’ (not patented). Both ‘Tor’ and ‘Tor Gold’ differ from ‘COURISPI01’ in having flowers that are white in color, in having less compact and taller plant habits, and in lacking a re-blooming. In addition, ‘Tor Gold’ exhibits yellow-green foliage.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance and distinct characteristics of the new Spiraea. The photographs were taken of a plant two years in age as grown in a trial garden in Moyenmoutier, France.
The photograph in FIG. 1 provides a view of the overall plant habit of ‘COURISPI01’ in bloom.
The photograph in FIG. 2 provides a close-up view of an inflorescence of ‘COURISPI01’.
The photograph in FIG. 3 provides a close-up view of the spring foliage of ‘COURISPI01’.
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 Spiraea.
The following is a detailed description of one year-old plants of the new cultivar as grown outdoors in two-gallon containers in St. Paul, Minn. 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.
