Description
Latin name of genus and species of plant claimed: Hydrangea quercifolia.
Variety denomination: ‘1925querrep’.
The first offer for sale of the new variety was June 2022, in the United States of America. The first offer for sale of the new variety was by an inventor or another who obtained the new variety directly or indirectly from an inventor. No plants of the new variety have been sold in this country or anywhere in the world, nor has any disclosure of the new plant been made, more than one year prior the effective filing date of this application, and such sale or disclosure within one year was either derived directly or indirectly from the inventor.
The new variety of Hydrangea plant of the present invention was discovered through a controlled program during October 2012, at Cochranville, Pennsylvania. The objective of the controlled program was the development of Hydrangea cultivars that have improved form, flowering, and disease resistance. The new Hydrangea cultivar is the result of open pollination. The female (seed) parent of the new cultivar is ‘Amethyst’, not patented. The male (pollen) parent of the new cultivar is unknown. The new cultivar was discovered and selected as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the above stated open pollination during July 2017, in a controlled environment in Cochranville, Pennsylvania.
The new variety has been found to undergo asexual propagation in Cochranville, Pennsylvania by terminal stem cuttings since August 2017. Asexual propagation by terminal stem cuttings in Cochranville, Pennsylvania has shown that the characteristics of the new variety are stable and are strictly transmissible by asexual propagation from one generation to another. Accordingly, the new variety undergoes asexual propagation in a true-to-type manner.
It was found that the new variety of Hydrangea plant of the present invention possesses the following combination of characteristics:
-
- (a) forms white colored inflorescences that age to pink,
- (b) provides repeat flowering,
- (c) exhibits light to medium green colored foliage, and
- (d) displays a moderately vigorous, well-branched upright and compact growth habit.
The new variety well meets the needs of the horticultural industry. It can be grown to advantage as ornamentation in parks, gardens, public areas, and in residential settings. Accordingly, the plant is particularly well suited for growing in the landscape.
The new variety of the present invention can readily be distinguished from its ancestors. More specifically, the ‘Amethyst’ variety (i.e., the seed parent) forms white colored inflorescences that age to wine red, whereas the new variety forms white colored inflorescences that age to pink. In addition, the new variety reblooms, whereas the ‘Amethyst’ variety blooms only once per growth season and the new variety has better resistance to leaf spot compared to the ‘Amethyst’ variety. Moreover, the new variety can be readily distinguished from other similar non-parental varieties. For example, the ‘JoAnn’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 27,879) have a less upright and less dense growth habit compared to the new variety. In addition, the new variety reblooms, whereas the ‘JoAnn’ variety blooms only once per growth season and the new variety has less susceptibility to leaf spot compared to plants of ‘JoAnn’.
The new variety has been named ‘1925querrep’.
The accompanying photograph of the drawing shows as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to make the same, in a color illustration of this character, typical specimens of the plant parts of the new variety. Colors in the photograph differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed description, which accurately describes the colors of ‘1925querrep’. The Hydrangea plants of the new variety were approximately four years of age and were observed during June 2022, while growing in a field at Cochranville, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.
The drawing sheet illustrates plants of the new variety displaying the overall growth and flowering habit.
The chart used in the identification of the colors is that of The Royal Horticultural Society (The R.H.S. Colour Chart, 2015 edition), London, England. The color values were determined in July 2022, under natural light conditions in Cochranville, Pennsylvania. The terminology which precedes reference to the chart has been added to indicate the corresponding color in more common terms and The R.H.S. Colour Chart designation used herein represents the closest color observed on the majority of the specified botanical feature. The description is based on the observation of plants produced from cuttings from stock plants and grown in three-gallon containers utilizing a soilless growth medium for 1 year in an outdoor nursery in Cochranville, Pennsylvania. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical plants.
