A new cultivar 'Daemang' with long red eye spot and large flower by interspecific cross of Hibiscus species.

摘要

A new cultivar 'Daemang' (Hibiscus hybrid 'Daemang') originated from the interspecific cross between Hibiscus sinosyriacus 'Seobong' and Hibiscus syriacus 'Namwon' to improve the flower quality in 2001. 'Daemang' was preliminarily selected as 'R-143' in 2003 for its stable flower quality with long red eye spot and named in 2006. The tree habit shows vigorous growth and is upright, so it can be used as a specimen tree or street tree. Characteristic tests such as leaf shape, leaf size, flower characteristics, flowering, and capsule size were conducted from 2004 to 2006. The characteristics succeed after grafting. 'Daemang' had pink color flower with red eye spot. The width of flower is 15.2 cm. Petal length and width are 8.0 cm and 6.4 cm, respectively. Leaves are 9.49 cm long and 8.72 cm wide. After the plant characteristics evaluation for 3 years (2004-2006), it was registered as a variety 'Daemang' in 2008.
