Abstract
A new and distinct Hydrangea cultivar named ‘NCHA5’ is disclosed, characterized by large, mop-head inflorescences with white sepals. Plant habit is dwarf and rounded with strong stems. Plants are triploid. The new variety is a Hydrangea normally produced as an outdoor garden or container plant.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Hydrangea arborescens.
Variety denomination: ‘NCHA5’.
The present invention comprises a new and distinct Hydrangea cultivar hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘NCHA5’. This new Hydrangea was developed through a breeding program at North Carolina State University, Mills River, N.C. ‘NCHA5’ was selected from a population of seedlings that resulted from a cross of Hydrangea arborescens ‘H2009-068-007’ (unpatented pollen parent) and Hydrangea arborescens ‘H2008-143-001’ (unpatented seed parent). See FIG. 1 for a complete pedigree. The first asexual propagation of ‘NCHA5’ was carried out in July 2012 by rooting stem cuttings at the North Carolina State University, Mountain Horticultural Crops Research Station, Mills River, N.C. and has been asexually reproduced repeatedly by vegetative cuttings over a two year period. ‘NCHA5’ roots readily from softwood cuttings treated with a basal dip of 2,500-5,000 ppm indole butyric acid (potassium salt) in water. ‘NCHA5’ has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive asexual propagations.
The following are the unique combination of characteristics of this new cultivar when grown under standard horticultural practices at Mills River, N.C.
-
- 1. Large mop-head inflorescences with white florets.
- 2. Triploid cytotype.
- 3. Dwarf, rounded habit with strong stems.
Table 1 shows distinguishing characteristics between ‘NCHA5’ and other cultivars of H. arborescens. ‘NCHA5’ has a unique combination of traits including large inflorescenses with white sepals, a dwarf habit, and a triploid cytotype.
‘NCHA5’ is similar in most horticultural characteristics to the seed parent variety, unpatented. The new variety however differs in the following:
-
- 1. ‘NCHA5’ has white sepals, sepals of the seed parent are light red-purple.
‘NCHA5’ is similar in most horticultural characteristics to the pollen parent variety, unpatented. The new variety however differs in the following:
-
- 1. ‘NCHA5’ has white sepals, sepals of the ‘NCHA3’ are red-purple.
Hydrangea ‘NCHA5’ can also be compared to the commercial varieties Hydrangea ‘NCHA4’, USSP 28,280 and ‘NCHA3’, USPP 28,317 which have the same parents as ‘NCHA5’, but, reversed as seed and pollen parents. ‘NCHA5’ differs from ‘NCHA4’ in the following characteristic:
-
- 1. ‘NCHA5’ has white sepals, sepals of ‘NCHA4’ are red-purple.
‘NCHA5’ differs from ‘NCHA3’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. ‘NCHA5’ has white sepals, sepals of ‘NCHA3’ are dark red-purple.
