Abstract
A new and distinct Gaillardia plant named ‘HARAPHON’ is disclosed, characterized by unique apricot-yellow flowers. Plants are well branched, flower abundantly and typically grow to 60 cm in height. The new variety is a Gaillardia, normally produced as an outdoor garden or container plant.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Gaillardia x grandiflora.
Variety denomination: ‘HARAPHON’.
The new Gaillardia cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor, Rosemary Hardy, at a commercial nursery in High Hurstwood, United Kingdom. The objective of the breeding program was to produce new Gaillardia varieties for ornamental commercial applications. The open pollination resulting in this new variety was made during late Summer of 2013.
The seed parent is the unpatented, variety Gaillardia grandiflora ‘Naomi Sunshine’. The pollen parent is unknown, as the crossing resulting in ‘HARAPHON’ was an open pollination, with unidentifiable pollen parents. The new variety was selected in June 2014 by the inventor in a group of seedlings resulting from the 2014 open-pollination in High Hurstwood, United Kingdom.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘HARAPHON’ by terminal vegetative cuttings was first performed at a greenhouse in High Hurstwood, United Kingdom during the Summer of 2014 and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations. First sale of plants of this new variety occurred May 26, 2018 in the United Kingdom. This access came directly or indirectly from the inventor, qualifying for the exception allowed under 102(b). Previous to this sale, although the variety may have been publicized in print, plants were not available to the public for propagation.
The cultivar ‘HARAPHON’ 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 ‘HARAPHON’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘HARAPHON’ as a new and distinct Gaillardia cultivar:
-
- 1. Unique apricot-yellow flowers.
- 2. Abundant flowering.
- 3. Plant height averaging 60 cm.
- 4. Abundant branching.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘HARAPHON’ are similar to plants of the seed parent, in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘HARAPHON’ differ in the following:
-
- 1. The new variety produces flowers of a softer shade of apricot-yellow than the seed parent.
- 2. Plants of ‘HARAPHON’ are taller than plants of the seed parent by 10 cm on average.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘HARAPHON’ are comparable to the variety Gaillardia ‘Oranges and Lemons’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 17,092. The two Gaillardia varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics, however, the new variety ‘HARAPHON’ differs in the following:
-
- 1. Plants of ‘HARAPHON’ are on average 60 cm tall, whereas plants of ‘Oranges and Lemons’ are 70 to 80 cm tall under the same conditions.
- 2. Plants of ‘HARAPHON’ are on average 45 cm wide whereas plants of ‘Oranges and Lemons’ are 60 cm wide under the same conditions.
- 3. Flower color of ‘HARAPHON’ is a softer apricot-yellow, compared to the stronger orange-yellow flower color of ‘Oranges and Lemons’.
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘HARAPHON’ grown in a nursery in a 2 liter pot. Age of the plant photographed is approximately 8 months from a rooted cutting.
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 2001 except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe ‘HARAPHON’ plants grown outdoors during Spring in High Hurstwood, United Kingdom. The growing temperature ranged from 8° C. to 25° C. during the day and from 3° C. to 12° C. during the night. General light conditions are bright, normal sunlight. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical plant types. Plants are approximately 120 days old from a rooted cutting.
