Abstract: A new cultivar of Japanese haskap plant, ‘Hoka’, that exhibits a low vigor growth habit making it very desirable for home gardens with limited space, its high fruit yields, its very early fruit maturity that allows growers to spread the harvest season with other berry varieties, its fruit that are ornamental, large, and cylindrical with a sweet/tart flavor, its medium fruit attachment that is strong enough to prevent pre-harvest drop and loose enough to pick easily, and its fruit that maintains its appearance, firmness and taste for at least 4 weeks in cold storage at 33° F. to 35° F.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a plum tree, Prunus salicina, and more particularly to a new and distinct variety broadly characterized by a medium size, moderately vigorous, hardy, and productive tree. Being self-unfruitful, the present variety requires cross pollination from an apricot, interspecific, or plum that blooms during the mid season, such as ‘September Yummy’ plum tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 14,220). The present variety's abundance of blossoms and moderate pollen production entices strong bee activity to facilitate pollination. The fruit matures under the ecological conditions described during mid to late July, with first picking on Jul. 13, 2015, and will hang on the tree for at least three weeks. The fruit is uniformly medium in size, red over a green background with dark red dappling in skin color, clingstone in type, globose to oblate with some asymmetry in shape, full red in flesh color, very firm and crisp in texture, very sweet, and excellent in flavor.

Abstract: A new and distinct cultivar of Lantana plant named ‘VOLLAN 1317’, characterized by its compact, upright to outwardly spreading plant habit; freely branching growth habit; dense and bushy plant form; early and freely flowering habit; flowers that are initially yellow in color and with development become orange and red in color; and good garden performance.

Abstract: A new cultivar of Japanese haskap plant, ‘Kaido’, that is characterized by its a spreading plant habit, its low vigor growth habit making it very desirable for home gardens with limited space, its high yield high fruit yield relatively to its plant size, its fruits that are medium in size, elliptical in shape, medium in firmness with a sweet/tart taste, its fruit that matures early, and its attachment to the stem that is strong enough to prevent pre-harvest drop and loose enough to permit easy picking without tearing the fruit flesh.

Abstract: A new cultivar of Japanese haskap plant, ‘Chito’, that is characterized by its slightly open growth habit that allows excellent presentation of the fruit, its consistently high fruit yields, fruits that are ornamental, large, oval-ovate in shape, and light blue in color with a tart/sweet flavor, and its medium strong fruit attachment to the stem that is strong enough to prevent pre-harvest drop and loose enough to permit easy picking without tearing the fruit flesh.

Abstract: A new cultivar of Japanese haskap plant, ‘Kawai’, that is characterized by its upright and spreading plant habit, its vigorous growth habit, its high fruit yields, its early mid-season fruit harvest, its fruit that are medium in size, ovate-rectangular in shape with a blunt concave apex, medium in firmness with a sweet/tart juice flavor, and its fruit attachment to the stem that is strong enough to prevent pre-harvest drop and loose enough to permit easy picking without tearing the fruit flesh.

Abstract: A new and distinct Echeveria cultivar named ‘Dark Moon’ is disclosed, characterized by concentric rosettes comprised of an abundance of deep violet black leaves. The new cultivar is robust growing, as compared to other existing dark Echeverias, enabling increased and faster propagation of the cultivar. The new cultivar ‘Dark Moon’ is more resistant to disease and “shattering” (as occurs with summer stress syndrome, a disease of some Echeverias, particularly the dark-leaved varieties). The new variety is an Echeveria, part of the Crassulaceae complex that includes Aeonium, Crassula, Graptopetalum, Pachyphytum, Sedum and others. Echeveria is a popular genus, typically produced as container plants for the patio or as landscape plants, as a variety of ornamental purposes.

Abstract: A new and distinct Echeveria cultivar named ‘Galaxy Blue’ is disclosed, characterized by concentric rosettes comprised of an abundance of undulate, icy blue leaves tipped with crimson. Further, the new cultivar ‘Galaxy Blue’ freely offsets, enabling increased and faster propagation in the commercial nursery. The new cultivar ‘Galaxy Blue’ exhibits moderately fast, robust growth, which, in combination with freely offsetting results in attractive clusters at an early age, thereby enhancing production intervals. The new variety is an Echeveria, part of the Crassulaceae complex that includes Aeonium, Crassula, Graptopetalum, Pachyphytum, Sedum and others. Echeveria is a popular genus, typically produced as container plants for the patio or as landscape plants, as a variety of ornamental purposes.
