Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Ilex plant named ‘Monnieves’, characterized by its compact, upright and open plant form; freely branching habit; vigorous growth habit; dark burgundy-colored developing stems; dark green-colored leaves; and good garden performance.
Description
Botanical designation: Ilex×meservae.
Cultivar denomination: ‘MONNIEVES’.
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct Ilex plant, botanically known as Ilex×meservae, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Monnieves’.
The new Ilex plant is a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of Ilex×meservae ‘Mondo’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,999. The new Ilex plant was discovered by the Inventor in 2002 from within a population of plants of ‘Mondo’ in a controlled outdoor nursery environment in Dayton, Oreg.
Asexual reproduction of the Ilex plant by cuttings in Dayton, Oreg. since August, 2004, has shown that the unique features of this new Ilex plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
Plants of the new Ilex 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 ‘Monnieves’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Monnieves’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Ilex:
-
- 1. Compact, upright and open plant form.
- 2. Freely branching habit.
- 3. Vigorous growth habit.
- 4. Dark burgundy-colored developing stems.
- 5. Dark green-colored leaves.
- 6. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Ilex can be compared to plants of the parent, ‘Mondo’. Plants of the new Ilex differ from plants of ‘Mondo’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Ilex are taller and narrower than plants of ‘Mondo’.
- 2. Plants of the new Ilex are more upright than and not as rounded as plants of ‘Mondo’.
- 3. Plants of the new Ilex are more open than and not as dense as plants of ‘Mondo’.
- 4. Plants of the new Ilex and ‘Mondo’ differ slightly in stem and leaf color.
- 5. Plants of the new Ilex are not susceptible to Phytophthora whereas plants of ‘Mondo’ are susceptible to Phytophthora.
Plants of the new Ilex can be compared to the plants of Ilex×meservae ‘Blue Baron’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,151. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Dayton, Oreg., plants of the new Ilex differed from plants of ‘Blue Baron’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Ilex are not as broad as plants of ‘Blue Baron’.
- 2. Plants of the new Ilex have shorter and narrower leaves than plants of ‘Blue Baron’.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Ilex plant. These photographs show the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description, which accurately describe the colors of the new Ilex plant. The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical plant of ‘Monnieves’ grown in a container. The photograph at the top of the sheet is a close-up view of a typical plant of ‘Monnieves’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in three-gallon containers during the winter in Dayton, Oreg. in an outdoor nursery and under commercial production conditions. During the production of the plants, day temperatures averaged 4° C. and night temperatures averaged −5° C. Plants used for the photographs and description were 42 months old. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2007 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
