Abstract
A new and distinct Ilex glabra cultivar named ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ is disclosed, characterized by dark green foliage. Plants are dwarf and compact, forming dense mounds, with foliage growth to the ground. The new cultivar is an Ilex glabra, suitable for ornamental garden purposes.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Ilex glabra.
Variety denomination: ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’.
The new cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program by the inventor. The new variety, hereinafter referred to as ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ was selected from an open-pollination breeding program conducted during 2007. The seed parent is Ilex glabra ‘Shamrock’, unpatented. The pollen parent is unidentified. The novel variety was discovered in a commercial nursery in Warwick, Md. during 2008.
After identifying the new variety as a potentially interesting selection, first asexual propagation of ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ occurred by softwood cuttings at a commercial nursery in Warwick, Md. in June 2009. The inventor continued controlled testing and asexual propagation, assessing stability of the unique characteristics of this variety. Eight generations have been asexually reproduced and have shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type.
The cultivar ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, day length, 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 ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ as a new and distinct Ilex glabra cultivar:
-
- 1. Dwarf, compact plant habit.
- 2. Dark foliage.
- 3. No blight issues observed, plant may be resistant to Phytophthora ilicis and/or other foliar pathogens of Ilex.
- 4. Foliage covers the plant attractively all the way to the ground.
‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ can be compared to the commercial variety Ilex glabra ‘SMNIGAB17’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 27,554. The varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ differ in the following ways:
-
- 1. New cultivar has larger leaves than this comparator.
- 2. New cultivar has dark green foliage; comparator has red tips during spring flush.
‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ can be compared to the parent Ilex glabra ‘Shamrock’. The varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ differ in the following ways:
-
- 1. New cultivar is of smaller stature; parent is taller by about 3 feet.
- 2. The seed parent may lose foliage near the ground, which is not regenerated, leaving the base of the plant bare.
- 3. The new variety has a more mounding plant habit, the seed parent is more upright.
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ grown outdoors in Grand Haven, Mich. Plants in FIG. 1 are approximately 3 years old, and exhibit the characteristic full, compact and mounded growth.
The photographs were taken using conventional techniques and although colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance it is as accurate as possible by conventional photographic techniques.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart 2015 except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe ‘ILEXFARROWTRACEY’ plants grown in a poly greenhouse during Summer, in Grand Haven, Mich. USA. The growing temperature ranged from 18° C. to 27° C. during the day and from 5° C. to 10° C. during the night. General light conditions are natural sunlight.
