Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Coleus plant named ‘Balmazmick’, characterized by its dark greyed purple, medium green, and cream multicolored foliage, low growth vigor, and compact-mounded growth habit, is disclosed.
Description
Latin name of genus and species of plant claimed: Solenostemon scutellarioides.
Variety denomination: ‘Balmazmick’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Coleus plant botanically known as Solenostemon scutellarioides and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Balmazmick’.
The new cultivar originated in a controlled breeding program in Cartago, Costa Rica during May 2018. The objective of the breeding program was the development of Coleus cultivars with unique foliage coloration and leaf shape, compact-mounded growth habit, and good sun tolerance.
The new Coleus cultivar is the result of a self-pollination of the proprietary Solenostemon scutellarioides breeding line coded COL-1185-01, not patented, characterized by its medium pink, purple, green and white multicolored foliage, and vigorous, trailing growth habit. The new cultivar was selected as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the above stated self-pollination during March 2019 in a controlled environment in Cartago, Costa Rica.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal stem cuttings since March 2019 in Cartago, Costa Rica, Arroyo Grande, Calif. and West Chicago, Ill. has demonstrated that the new cultivar reproduces true-to-type with all of the characteristics, as herein described, firmly fixed and retained through successive generations of such asexual propagation.
The following characteristics of the new cultivar have been repeatedly observed and can be used to distinguish ‘Balmazmick’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Coleus plant:
-
- 1. Dark greyed purple, medium green, and cream multicolored foliage;
- 2. Low growth vigor; and
- 3. Compact-mounded growth habit.
Plants of the new cultivar differ from plants of the parent primarily in having a different foliage color, reduced growth vigor and a compact-mounded growth habit.
Of the many commercially available Coleus cultivars, the most similar in comparison to the new cultivar is GREAT FALLS Iguazu ‘Docogrefalig’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 31,031. However, in comparison, plants of the new cultivar differ from plants of ‘Docogrefalig’ in at least the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new cultivar have longer and narrower leaves than plants of ‘Docogrefalig’;
- 2. Plants of the new cultivar have an attenuate leaf base unlike the truncate base of plants of ‘Docogrefalig’; and
- 3. Plants of the new cultivar have lower growth vigor and a more compact-mounded growth habit than plants of ‘Docogrefalig’.
The accompanying photographs show, as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make the same in color illustrations of this type, the overall growth habit and typical foliage characteristics of the new cultivar. Colors in the photographs differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed description, which accurately describes the colors of ‘Balmazmick’. The plants were approximately 4-months old. The plants were grown in 3-gallon containers for approximately 10 weeks in an outdoor nursery in West Chicago, Ill. Plants were pinched once, four weeks prior to transplant.
The new cultivar has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions to date. Accordingly, it is possible that the phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in the environment, such as temperature, light intensity, and day length, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The chart used in the identification of colors described herein is The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England, 2015 edition, except where general color terms of ordinary significance are used. The color values were determined in August 2021 under natural light conditions in Naperville, Ill.
The following descriptions and measurements describe approximately 4-month-old plants produced from cuttings from stock plants and grown under conditions comparable to those used in commercial practice. The plants were grown in 3-gallon containers for approximately 10 weeks in an outdoor nursery in West Chicago, Ill. Plants were given one pinch, four weeks prior to transplant. Prior to transplant plants were grown in a polycarbonate greenhouse in West Chicago, Ill. Greenhouse temperatures were maintained at approximately 70° F. to 85° F. (21° C. to 29° C.) during the day and approximately 60° F. to 70° F. (16° C. to 21° C.) during the night. Supplemental lighting was used during propagation stage. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical plants.
