Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Heuchera plant named ‘Coralberry’, characterized by its compact and uniformly mounded plant habit; densely foliated and bushy appearance; dark pink-colored leaves; and good garden performance.
Description
Botanical designation: Heuchera×hybrida.
Cultivar denomination: ‘CORALBERRY’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct Heuchera plant of Heuchera, botanically known as Heuchera×hybrida and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Coralberry’.
The objective of the breeding program is to create new compact Heuchera plants with attractive leaf colors with good garden performance.
The new Heuchera plant originated from a cross-pollination in April, 2010 in Heerhugowaard, The Netherlands of Heuchera×hybrida ‘Crimson Curls’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 13,729, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Heuchera×hybrida identified as code number 083-09-C012, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Heuchera plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in Heerhugowaard, The Netherlands in July, 2011.
Asexual reproduction of the new Heuchera plant by meristem culture in controlled laboratory and greenhouse environments in Andijk, The Netherlands since March, 2013 has shown that the unique features of this new Heuchera plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The new Heuchera plant has 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 ‘Coralberry’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Coralberry’ as a new and distinct Heuchera plant:
-
- 1. Compact and uniformly mounded plant habit.
- 2. Densely foliated and bushy appearance.
- 3. Dark pink-colored leaves.
- 4. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Heuchera differ from plants of the female parent, ‘Crimson Curls’, in leaf color as plants of ‘Crimson Curls’ have dark purple brown and crimson-colored leaves. In addition, leaf margins of plants of the new Heuchera are not as undulate (curly) as leaf margins of ‘Crimson Curls’.
Plants of the new Heuchera differ from plants of the male parent selection in leaf color as plants of the male parent selection have orangish peach-colored leaves.
Plants of the new Heuchera can be compared to plants of the Heuchera×hybrida ‘Georgia Plum’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 24,507. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Heuchera differ primarily from plants of ‘Georgia Plum’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Heuchera are more compact and denser than plants of ‘Georgia Plum’.
- 2. Plants of the new Heuchera and ‘Georgia Plum’ differ in leaf color as plants of ‘Georgia Plum’ have purple pink-colored leaves.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrates the overall appearance of the new Heuchera plant showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photograph may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Heuchera plant.
The photograph on the first sheet is a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Coralberry’ grown in a container.
The photograph at the top of the second sheet is a close-up view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Coralberry’.
The photograph at the bottom of the second sheet is a close-up view of typical leaves of ‘Coralberry’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown during the spring and early summer in 17-com containers in an outdoor nursery in Wieringerwerf, The Netherlands and under cultural practices typical of commercial Heuchera production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 10° C. to 25° C. and night temperatures ranged from 4° C. to 15° C. Plants were 14 weeks old when the photographs and the description were taken. In the description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2007 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
