Abstract
A new cultivar of Fargesia plant named ‘JAN W3M’ that is characterized by its short plant height and a compact plant habit, its leaves that are small in size and dark green in color, and its moderate vigor.
Description
Botanical classification: Fargesia hybrid.
Variety denomination: ‘JAN W3M’.
This application is co-pending with a U.S. Plant Patent Application filed for a plant derived from the same breeding program that is entitled Fergesia Plant Named ‘JAN W3M’ (U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 17/009,600). This application is also related to a European plant breeders' rights application filed on Jul. 31, 2017, application No. 2017/1896. There have been no offers for sale anywhere in the world prior to the effective filing date of this Application and no accessibility to one of ordinary skill in the art could have been derived from the printed plant breeder's rights documents.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Fargesia of hybrid origin will be referred to hereafter by its cultivar name, ‘JAN W3M’. ‘JAN W3M’ is a new cultivar of bamboo shrub grown for use as a landscape plant.
‘JAN W3M’ was selected as a single unique plant by the Inventor in a trial field in Edewecht, Germany in 2014 (with numerous seedlings evaluated from 2008 to 2014). The trial field had been planted with seeds from an open pollinated plant of an unnamed and unpatented plant of Fargesia murieliae times Fargesia nitida from the Inventor's breeding program. The exact male parent is unknown as the seeds were set after open pollination.
Asexual propagation of the new cultivar was first accomplished by the inventor using division in 2014 in Edewecht, Germany. Asexual propagation by division has been determined that the characteristics of ‘JAN W3M’ are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and represent the characteristics of the new cultivar. These attributes in combination distinguish ‘JAN W3M’ as a unique cultivar of Fargesia.
- 1. ‘JAN W3M’ exhibits a short plant height and a compact plant habit.
- 2. ‘JAN W3M’ exhibits leaves that are small in size.
- 3. ‘JAN W3M’ exhibits leaves that are dark green in color.
- 4. ‘JAN W3M’ exhibits moderate vigor.
The female plant of ‘JAN W3M’ differs from ‘JAN W3M’ in having a taller plant height (3.5 m), leaves that are larger in size and leaves that are lighter green in color. Typical plant of Fragesia murieliae x Fragesia nitida differs from ‘JAN W3M’ in having a much taller plant height ‘JAN W3M’ can be most closely compared to the cultivars ‘Jan 108’ (not patented), ‘Bimbo’ (not patented), and ‘JAN W2M’. ‘Jan 108’ differs from ‘JAN W3M’ in having a taller plant height, more vigorous growth habit, and leaves that are larger in size and lighter green in color. ‘Bimbo’ differs from ‘JAN W3M’ in having a wider spreading plant habit, leaves that are larger in size and lighter green in color, and in not responding as well to pruning. ‘JAN W2M’ differs from ‘JAN W3M’ in having a less compact plant habit with a larger plant height and width.
The Applicant asserts that no publications or advertisements relating to sales, offers for sale, or public distribution occurred more than one year prior to the effective filing date of this application. Any information about the claimed plant would have been obtained from a direct or indirect disclosure from the Inventor. The Applicant claims a prior art exemption under 35 U.S.C. 102(b)(1) for disclosure and/or sales prior to the filing date but less than one year prior to the effective filing date. Disclosures include but may not be limited to website listings by sites presenting its entrance in the new product showcase at the International Plant Fair “IPM Essen”, Bambus Borse, Bambus Heppingsen, Bambus Hecken, Well-born Bamboo Africa, Taspo, Gabot, Bambus-Versand, and Van Vliet New Plants.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance and distinct characteristics of the new Fargesia. The photographs were taken of a 2-year-old plant as grown outdoors in a polyethylene tunnel in a 27-cm container in Edewecht, Germany.
The photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates the plant habit of ‘JAN W3M’.
The photograph in FIG. 2 provides a close-up view of the foliage of ‘JAN W3M’.
The photograph in FIG. 3 provides a close-up view of the main shoots of ‘JAN W3M’.
The colors in the photographs are as close as possible with the digital photography techniques utilized and the color values cited in the detailed botanical description accurately describe the colors of the new Fargesia.
The following is a description of 2-year-old plants as grown outdoors in a polyethylene tunnel in 27-cm containers in Edewecht, Germany. The phenotype of the new cultivar may vary with variations in environmental, climatic, and cultural conditions, as it has not been tested under all possible environmental conditions. The color determination is in accordance with The 2015 Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
