Abstract: A new and distinct variety of evergreen shrub holly distinguished in that it combines from three species (Ilex rugosa, I. integra, and I. pernyi), as well as exhibiting desirable landscape and production traits which distinguish it from other forms of Ilex. Plants of the new variety exhibit a moderately vigorous rate of growth, develop a dense, self-compacting, moderately broad conical form of moderate size, possess small, shiny, dark green leaves with a beautiful finely rugose surface and non-spiny margins (consumer friendly) with bright red fruit displayed on wood of the previous season's growth, and are outstanding for their high level of winter hardiness.

Abstract: An F1 interspecific hybrid of Cornus kousa×C. florida that is distinguished by its large bracts, a compact and dense attitude, wider than tall, and a flowering habit in the middle of the blooming season for the commercially available cultivars of Cornus kousa×C. florida. The cultivar has a high level of winter hardiness, and is highly resistant to dogwood anthracnose and the common dogwood borer.

Abstract: An interspecific hybrid of Cornus kousa×C. nuttallii exhibits the vigorous nature and the floral display of large, white bracts of plants of C. nuttallii and the dark, glossy green foliage and disease and insect resistance of plants of C. kousa. The hybrid thus provides a new, unique, and sperior large-braed dogwood for landscaping purposes. Plants of C. nuttallii become very large in nature in areas where they are indigenous but seldom thrive in other areas. Plants of this novel hybrid are expected to thrive in many regions of the world where plants of C. kousa perform well.
