Abstract

A new, distinct Veronica plant as described and illustrated, characterized by the combination of longer and wider foliage and longer and wider blue flower spikes.

Description

Latin name: Veronica hybrid.
Cultivar name: ‘Seaside’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct hybrid of Veronica plant named ‘Seaside’ characterized by the combination of longer and wider foliage and longer and wider blue flower spikes, compared to the seed parent. The new Veronica was raised as a seedling from open pollinated seed sown from the seed parent Veronica x ‘Kiss the Sky’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 31,665, patented, in Hebron, IL in 2016. The male, pollen parent is unknown and the new plant was selected as a chance seedling. The selection of the new plant was due to the combination of longer and wider foliage and longer and wider blue flower spikes compared to the seed parent. Initial asexual reproduction has taken place at a nursery in Hebron, IL since 2017 by means of division, and vegetative stem cuttings. Continued asexual propagation by division and vegetative stem cuttings since that time has shown that the unique features of the new Veronica plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations. No plants of the new Veronica have been sold in this country, or anywhere in the world, prior to the filing of this application, nor has any disclosure of the new plant been made prior to the filing of this application with the exception of that which was disclosed by the inventor and his nursery, in Hebron, IL. As well as licensees who did obtain plants from the inventor within one year of filing of this application and was derived directly from the inventor.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new Veronica plant named ‘Seaside’ characterized by combination of longer and wider foliage and longer and wider blue flowers compared to the seed parent have been observed to be unique and stable. For purpose of comparison the new plant will be referred to as ‘Seaside’.
Plants of ‘Seaside’ can be compared to the seed parent plant of Veronica x ‘Kiss the Sky’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 31,665. 1. Plants of ‘Seaside’ inflorescence grows to 33 cm in length while Veronica x ‘Kiss the Sky’ has an inflorescence growing to 29 cm in length. 2. Plants of ‘Seaside’ foliage grows to 11 cm in length and 4 cm in width while Veronica x ‘Kiss the Sky’ has foliage grows to 8-10 cm in length and 3.5 cm in width. 3. Plants of ‘Seaside’ foliage color is 135 B while Veronica x ‘Kiss the Sky’ foliage color is 137 A.
Plants of ‘Seaside’ can be compared to plants of Veronica x ‘Spike’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 27,814. 1. Plants of ‘Seaside’ inflorescence grows to 33 cm in length while Veronica x ‘Spike’ has an inflorescence growing to 23 cm in length. 2. Plants of ‘Seaside’ grows to 90 cm tall while Veronica x ‘Spike’ grows to 40 cm tall. 3. Plants of ‘Seaside’ foliage color is 135 B while Veronica x ‘Spike’ foliage color is 139 A.
Plants of ‘Seaside’ can be compared to plants of Veronica x ‘Pure Silver’, not patented. 1. Plants of ‘Seaside’ inflorescence grows to 33 cm in length while Veronica x ‘Pure Silver’ has an inflorescence growing to 10 cm in length. 2. Plants of ‘Seaside’ grows to 90 cm tall while Veronica x ‘Pure Silver’ grows to 40 cm tall. 3. Plants of ‘Seaside’ foliage color is 135 B while Veronica x ‘Pure Silver’ foliage color is silver.
