Abstract

A new Hibiscus plant named ‘RutHib1’ is characterized by a combination of good form, medium vigor, predominately purple foliage, white flowers with a red eye, and good tolerance to Alternaria, Cercospora, and Phytophthora pathogens.

Description

Genus and species: Hibiscus moscheutos.
Variety denomination: The new Hibiscus moscheutos claimed is of the cultivar denominated ‘RutHib1’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar Hibiscus moscheutos, botanically known as Hibiscus moscheutos ‘RutHib1’.
The new Hibiscus moscheutos ‘RutHib1’ is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Watkinsville, Ga. The objective of the Hibiscus breeding program is to create new plant cultivars with ornamental leaf distinctions, abundant flowers, and tolerance to pathogens.
The new Hibiscus moscheutos ‘RutHib1’ is a product of Hibiscus moscheutos ‘13-19’ (Inventor controlled cross, not patented) x ‘Crown Jewels’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,857). The female parent is Hibiscus moscheutos ‘13-19’. The cross was made in 2011. ‘RutHib1’ has been evaluated through trials in Watkinsville, Ga. from 2012 and the plant ‘RutHib1’ was selected in 2013.
Asexual reproduction of the new Hibiscus moscheutos ‘RutHib1’ was by vegetative terminal cuttings in a controlled environment in Watkinsville, Ga. since 2013. Observations of the resulting ‘RutHib1’ progeny has shown that the unique features of this new Hibiscus moscheutos ‘RutHib1’ are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘RutHib1’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment and cultural practices such as temperature and light intensity without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following represents the distinguishing characteristics of the new Hibiscus moscheutos cultivar named ‘RutHib1’. In combination, these traits set ‘RutHib1’ apart from all other existing varieties of Hibiscus known to the inventor.
    • 1. Good Form.
    • 2. Medium vigor.
    • 3. Predominately purple foliage.
    • 4. White flowers with a red eye.
    • 5. Good tolerance to Alternaria, Cercospora, and Phytophthora pathogens.
COMPARISON TO PARENT PLANTS
‘RutHib1’ is more upright in growth habit than ‘Crown Jewels’. Hibiscus ‘13-19’ is taller than ‘RutHib1’; has a more open growth habit and less glossy leaves than ‘RutHib1’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES
The accompanying colored photographic illustrations show the overall appearance and distinct characteristics of the new cultivar of Hibiscus moscheutos ‘RutHib1’. The colors in the photographs are as close as possible with the photographic and printing technology utilized.
The photograph labeled FIG. 1 depicts a five year old ‘RutHib1’ plant.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The following is a detailed description of the Hibiscus moscheutos cultivar named ‘RutHib1’. Data was collected at a farm in Watkinsville, Ga. from five year old plants grown outdoors and planted in the ground.
