Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Baptisia plant named ‘PIIBAP-01-21’, characterized by its dusky purple stems, peduncles, and pedicels fading to green as they age, purplish-blue flowers with a hidden pale yellow-green keel, dark olive-green tri-foliate foliage, upright uniform, vase shaped plant habit, and produces abundant flowers and flower stems.

Description

Genus and species of plant claimed: Baptisia hybrid.
Variety denomination: ‘PIIBAP-01-21’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of hybrid Baptisia, hereinafter referred to by its cultivar name ‘PIIBAP-01-21’. This cultivar is grown primarily as an herbaceous perennial for landscape and cut flowers. This cultivar originated from an open pollination of Baptisia x variicolor ‘Twilite’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 19,011) in Watkinsville, GA in 2019, and was selected from the progeny by continued evaluation for growth habit, floral, and foliage characteristics.
‘PIIBAP-01-21’ has been asexually reproduced by softwood cuttings since 2019 in Watkinsville, GA. The characteristics of the cultivar have been stable and reproduced true-to-type in successive vegetative generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
‘PIIBAP-01-21’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with changes in light, temperature, soil and rainfall without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been observed and represent the characteristics of the new cultivar. In combination, these characteristics distinguish ‘PIIBAP-01-21’ from all other varieties in commerce known to the Inventors. 1) Dusky-violet stems, petioles, stipules, peduncles, pedicels, and flower buds emerge, fading to green once the plant matures. 2) Purplish-blue flowers with a hidden pale yellow-green keel. 3) Dark olive-green tri-foliate foliage. 4) Upright uniform, vase shaped plant habit. 5) Produces abundant flowers and flower stems.
PARENTAL COMPARISON
‘PIIBAP-01-21’ is distinguished from its parent plant Baptisia x variicolor ‘Twilite’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 19,011) by the color of its new growth until the plant matures. ‘PIIBAP-01-21’ has dusky-violet stems, petioles, stipules, peduncles, pedicels and flower buds until the plant begins to age and they fade to green, but ‘Twilite’ emerges with green petioles, stipules, peduncles, pedicels and flower buds and remains green. ‘PIIBAP-01-21’ has a columnar habit becoming more vase-shape as foliage develops, where ‘Twilite’ has an upright plant habit. ‘PIIBAP-01-21’ has olive-green foliage and ‘Twilite’ has blue-green foliage.
COMMERCIAL COMPARISON
‘PIIBAP-01-21’ can be compared to the cultivar ‘Purple Smoke’ (unpatented). ‘PIIBAP-01-21’ has stems, petioles, stipules, peduncles, pedicels, and flower buds that emerge dusty violet until they mature and become olive green. ‘Purple Smoke’ emerges with charcoal grey stems and does not have the dusty violet color on the stems, petioles, stipules, peduncles, pedicels, and flower buds.
‘PIIBAP-01-21’ can be compared to the cultivar ‘Grape Taffy’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 26,587). ‘PIIBAP-01-21’ has purple-blue flowers and ‘Grape Taffy’ has violet flowers. ‘PIIBAP-01-21’ has stems, petioles, stipules, peduncles, pedicels, and flower buds that are a dusty violet color until maturity. ‘Grape Taffy’ stems, petioles, stipules, peduncles, pedicels, and flower buds emerge green.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
