Abstract
New and distinct cultivar of bedding viola named Black Magic, characterized by its prominent black colored flowers, floriferous habit, hardiness to extreme cold and compact stature.
Description
My new variety of Viola plant originated as a chance sport stem in a self-perpetuating ornamental bedding Viola planting in Sheridan, Oreg. during July of 1984. The parent plant which exhibited the black flowering sport stem was a blue flowering variety of unknown origin. Since the discovery of the new Viola cultivar named Black Magic, I have asexually reproduced it by the rooting of stem cuttings of terminal growth, finding that all the characteristics described here are firmly fixed and hold true through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The illustration shows the novel blossom color and compact growth habit.
