Applicant: Baldassare Mineo, Medford, Oregon, USA. Agent: Plant Growers Australia, Wonga Park, VIC. Characteristics (Table 16, Figure 23) Plant: perennial, dense spreading evergreen shrub, medium compact. Stem: reddish green. Leaf: linear to lanceolate, colour green (RHS 137B). Flower: raceme length long, bud greyed-red (RHS 179B), flower tubular, petals 4-5, petal background colour white (RHS 155C), vein and margin colour red (RHS 55B). (Note: all RHS colour chart numbers refer to 1995 edition.) Origin and Breeding Spontaneous mutation: first observed as a sport from Gaura ‘Siskiyou Pink’ at Plant Growers Australia, Wonga Park, VIC in 1999. The parental variety is characterised by pink flower colour. This pale pink mutant was isolated in 1999 and since then has been selected through one cycle of selection to develop ‘Blushing Butterflies’. Selection criteria: growth habit, and flower colour. Propagation: by cuttings. Breeder: Howard Bentley, Wonga Park, VIC. Choice of Comparators ‘Siskiyou Pink’ was chosen because it is the source material from which the variety was selected and is the most similar variety. Gaura lindeimeri was chosen because it represents the natural form of the species. No other similar varieties of common knowledge have been identified. Comparative Trial Comparators: ‘Siskiyou Pink’, Gaura lindheimeri. Location: Wonga Park, VIC spring-autumn 1999/2000. Conditions: trial conducted in open, plants propagated from cutting, rooted cuttings planted into 150mm pots filled with soilless potting mix (pine bark base), nutrition maintained with slow release fertilisers, pest and disease treatments applied as required. Trial design: ten pots of each variety arranged in a completely randomised design. Measurements: from thirty plants at random. One sample per plant. Prior Applications and Sales Nil.

DESCRIPTIONS PLANT VARIETIES JOURNAL 2000 VOL 13 NO. 1 seedling in a trial bed at Plant Growers Australia, Wonga Park, VIC in 1997 among a crop of seedlings raised from Gaura lindheimeri ‘Siskiyou Pink’. This very compact variant was isolated in 1997 and since then has been selected through several cycles of selection to develop ‘Crimson Butterflies’. Selection criteria: growth habit, foliage markings and flower colour. Propagation: by cuttings. Breeder: Howard Bentley, Wonga Park, VIC. Choice of Comparators ‘Siskiyou Pink’ was chosen because it is the original source material from which the variety was selected and is the most similar variety. No other similar varieties of common knowledge have been identified. Comparative Trial Comparator: ‘Siskiyou Pink’. Location: Wonga Park, VIC, spring-autumn 1999/2000. Conditions: trial conducted in open, plants propagated from cutting, rooted cuttings planted into 150mm pots filled with soilless potting mix (pine bark base), nutrition maintained with slow release fertilisers, pest and disease treatments applied as required.

Applicant: Baldassare Mineo, Medford, Oregon, USA. Agent: Plant Growers Australia, Wonga Park, VIC. Characteristics (Table 18, Figure 25) Plant: perennial, medium sparse, variegated, spreading evergreen shrub, medium compact. Stem: green. Leaf: linear to lanceolate, untwisted, colour outer edge yellow-white (RHS 158A), centre colour green (RHS 137C). Flower: raceme length medium-long, bud greyed-purple (RHS 185B), flower tubular, petals 4-5, petal colour red (RHS 55B). (Note: all RHS colour chart numbers refer to 1995 edition.) Origin and Breeding Spontaneous mutation: first observed as a sport from Gaura ‘Siskiyou Pink’ at Plant Growers Australia, Wonga Park, VIC in 1998. The parental variety is characterised by non-variegated leaves. The variegated mutant was isolated in 1998 and since then has been selected through four cycles of selection to develop ‘Sunny Butterflies’. Selection criteria: growth habit, leaf variegation, and flower colour. Propagation: by cuttings. Breeder: Howard Bentley, Wonga Park, VIC. Choice of Comparators ‘Corries Gold’ and ‘Jo Adela’ were chosen they are the closest known variegated varieties. The parent plant, ‘Siskiyou Pink’ was excluded because it is not variegated. No other similar varieties of common knowledge have been identified. Comparative Trial Comparators: ‘Corries Gold’ and ‘Jo Adela’. Location: Wonga Park, VIC spring-autumn 1999/2000. Conditions: trial conducted in open, plants propagated from cutting, rooted cuttings planted into 150mm pots filled with soilless potting mix (pine bark base), nutrition maintained with slow release fertilisers, pest and disease treatments applied as required. Trial design: ten pots of each variety arranged in a completely randomised design. Measurements: from thirty plants at random. One sample per plant. Prior Applications and Sales Nil.
