ABSTRACT:
Botanical classification/cultivar designation:
Campanula×haylodgensis
cultivar 10.00.99.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Campanula plant, botanically known as
Campanula×haylodgensis
, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘10.00.99’.
The new Campanula is a naturally-occurring branch mutation of an unidentified selection of
Campanula×haylodgensis,
not patented. The cultivar 10.00.99 was discovered and selected by the Inventor from within a population of plants of the unidentified selection of
Campanula×haylodgensis
in a controlled environment in March, 2000, in Odense, Denmark.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by cuttings taken at Odense, Denmark, since March, 2000, has shown that the unique features of this new Campanula are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the cultivar 10.00.99 have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature and/or light intensity without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘10.00.99’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘10.00.99’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Upright and outwardly spreading growth habit.
2. Single violet blue campanulate flowers.
3. Temperature tolerant from −15 to 35° C.
Plants of the new Campanula are most similar to plants of the parent, the unidentified selection of
Campanula×haylodgensis
. Plants of the new Campanula differ from plants of the parent selection in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Campanula were more freely flowering than plants of the parent selection.
2. Plants of the new Campanula had single flowers whereas plants of the parent selection had double flowers.
