A Few Notes on Names and Dataare complex and should be reviewed outsidethis summary. Nandina domestica[Obsession]=’Seika’ illustrates thisanomaly.Plant Patents (PP) and Plant Breeders’Rights (PBR)Anyone may propagate and sell a cultivarusing the cultivar name without financialliability or obligation unless there is anactive plant patent. Plant patents in thiscountry are granted by the US Patent andTrademark Office to applicants describinga plant with characteristics not previouslyregistered. A patent number rather thana name identifies the plant. Hydrangeaquercifolia ‘Little Honey’ was discoveredand cultivated by Briggs Nursery, acommercial breeder and grower. ‘LittleHoney’ was patented through breedersagent PlantHaven, Inc. and has beengranted a US Plant Patent, PP# 15,477. Thepatent number and the cultivar name aredifferent since a cultivar name must be ina modern language, not a number code. Inthe EU, a roughly equivalent process is thegranting of Plant Breeders’ Rights. There,the PBR name must be registered under theapproved name, which is the cultivar name,e.g. Ajuga reptans BLACK SCALLOP=’Binblasca’ (PBR) . By default, the cultivarname, ’Binblasca’ (PBR) , becomes an intellectualproperty right or patent, identified inEurope, which is secured through the paymentof fees covering the initial applicationand subsequent renewals. By law, thecultivar name must be on the label at pointof sale. This particular plant has acquired aUS Plant Patent number as well.Trade Names – (non-italicized, non-Latinized,bold sans serif type, capitalized,securing symbol suffix or ®, containedwithin rectangular brackets, precedes cultivarname with “=”, e.g. Hydrangea macrophylla[CITYLINE®Rio] =’Ragra’).In the USA and other countries wherepermitted, growers who have acquiredand registered a cultivar and who wantto market it, may secure the commercialrights to a separate trade name associatedwith the plant through promotion. This maybe easier and cheaper than securing a plantpatent.Acquiring the name rights is done througha trademark or a registration and can begranted only by a governing authority, suchas the US Patent and Trademark Office. Itis important to understand that the tradename has no official or legal link to a plant.It is owned by an individual or companyand can be extended to other plants.Where trade names are employed, thetendency has been for the applicant toselect a memorable name for his marketingname and, for various reasons, a nonsensicalname for the cultivar name as theabove example demonstrates. A user of themarketing name will promote it to the pointthat consumers will ask for it rather thanthe cultivar name.Intergeneric Hybrid – (non-italicized “x”symbol prefix in front of generic name,e.g. xHeucherella ‘Sweet Tea’ orxGordlinia grandiflora) These hybridsare the result of sexual propagation bymerging reproductive material from twodifferent genera. It can be created naturallyor through human intervention. When ahybrid is produced between two differentgenera it is termed intergeneric. Notice thatthe first example has no specific epithet butit does have a cultivar name. This conventionis used with any groups having muchhybridization and selection and where theorigins of the original species have blurred,thus making a Latinized specific epithetmeaningless. The second has a specificepithet and no cultivar name so it is a newspecies. As is commonly the practice, thenew generic name is a combination of thetwo original generic names.Interspecific Hybrid – (non-italicized “x”symbol between the generic name and thenew specific epithet, e.g. Abelia x grandiflora[Pinky Bells]=’Lynn’)When a hybrid is produced between twodifferent plants from the same genus butwith different specific epithets it is termedinterspecific. When the origins of theoriginal species’ subsets are confused, thehybrid designation recognized by the “x”symbol and a new species epithet may bedropped, as in Thuja ‘Green Giant’.Handbook Plant List and Data OrganizationThe list is divided into woodies (trees,shrubs and vines) and perennials.

56Planting Container Grown PlantsPlease follow these planting instructions to assure establishment. We are not able tooffer replacement plants, exchanges or refunds.Many containerized plants are grownin potting mixes that contain little or noactual soil. In order for a plant to makethe transition from its pot into the garden,use the following guidelines:1. Remove all, or as much of the pottingmix as possible from around the plant’sroots by teasing the root system out of theplanting media. In nurseries the plants arewatered at frequent intervals and pottingmixes need to be quick-draining. If themix isn’t removed, it dries out rapidly inthe garden and can actually repel or wickwater away from the plant.2. Container plants are often pot-bound.Slash or break up the plant’s root mass andstraighten out any circling or girdling roots.Remove any dead or injured roots. Placethe plant in the hole and spread chunks ofthe root system over a cone of soil.3. When planting, make sure the crownof perennial/herbaceous plants or the rootflare of woody plants is level with the soil’ssurface when placed into the planting hole.Anticipate the soil will settle a bit – manyhorticulturists believe it is better to plantslightly high.4. Mulch. Use a 2” layer of hardwood barkmulch or composted leaves around yourplants, but don’t pile it onto the crown ortrunk of a plant. Mulch retains moisture,mediates soil temperatures, discouragesweeds, and eventually breaks down intoorganic matter.5. Water well after planting and continue towater frequently throughout the first completegrowing season. A rule of thumb is“water once a day for a week, every weekfor a month, and every month for a year.”Watch your plants for signs of stress andwater them during periods when there is norainfall. It is important to water conifersand broad-leaved evergreens through thewinter as their needles and leaves continueto lose moisture during that time.6. Water deeply with a slow trickle for alength of time appropriate to the size of theroot mass. If you just sprinkle the surface,the roots will remain shallow and grow towardsthe surface and are then more proneto drying out during drought.Planting Strategies for Drought Situations:1. If possible, keep plants in containersuntil in situ soil moisture is restored.2. While plants are in containers, checkthem at least once a day for moisturerequirements.3. Water container plants frequently anddeeply, making sure the soil is saturated.Even if the water runs out the bottom of thepot, don’t assume it’s saturated. Sometimeswhen soil really dries out, it actuallyrepels water at first.If you do have to plant right away, orwhen you do plant, we recommend thefollowing:1. Pre-moisten the soil 24 hours before youplant.2. Water new plantings daily for at least thefirst few weeks.3. Water entire area, not just individualplants.4. Check plants daily for their water requirements.The more attention and care you give aplant during the first year, the better offit will be in the long run.
