1 Knockout Natives George Coombs- Manager, Horticultural Research
2 Mt. Cuba Center
3 Research at Mt. Cuba Center Plant Introductions Trial Garden Evaluations Ecological Evaluations- 2014
4 Plant Introductions Introduced 17 cultivars to the trade since 1988 Newest- Coreopsis tripteris Gold Standard Symphyotrichum oblongifolium Purple Dome Symphyotrichum laeve Bluebird Ageratina altissima Chocolate Viola walteri Silver Gem Solidago sphacelata Golden Fleece
5 Trial Garden Evaluations What we do Evaluate native plants and their related cultivars Why Inform consumers and nurseries Introduce under-used species Promote greater awareness How Genera based Eastern United States Includes hybrids of natives Maintain with homeowner in mind
6 Data Collection Weekly data Measurements Pest/Disease observations Assign ratings Scale of 1-5 Foliage/habit, floral display, disease resistance 3 years Final report, website summaries
7 Trial Garden Evaluations Completed Trials Phlox Monarda Baptisia Coreopsis Heuchera Echinacea (outdated) Asters Ongoing Trials Helenium Hydrangea Clematis Amsonia Upcoming Trials Echinacea Carex
8 Coreopsis ( ) Why Coreopsis? Lots of new breeding New annuals Several species not used in horticulture Hardiness complaints 94 accessions 67 perennials 27 annuals
9 Coreopsis palustris Summer Sunshine
10 Coreopsis tripteris Gold Standard
11 Coreopsis integrifolia Last Dance
12 What We Learned Numerous overlooked species deserve more horticultural attention C. tripteris, palustris, integrifolia, delphiniifolia, palmata Rhizomatous habit are more reliably perennial C. tripteris, verticillata, rosea, palustris, integrifolia
13 Monarda ( ) Why trial Monarda? Powdery mildew New dwarf cultivars Several species not used in horticulture 40 accessions in total 6 species
14 Monarda fistulosa Claire Grace (4.5)
15 Monarda Dark Ponticum (4.5)
16 Monarda AChall (Grand Marshall ) (4.2)
17 Monarda Purple Rooster (4.1)
18 Other Great Cultivars Jacob Cline (3.7) Prairie Gypsy (3.8)
19 Interesting Species Monarda bradburiana Monarda punctata
20 What We Learned Excellent pm resistance often = poor floral display Unimpressed by most dwarf cultivars Straight species hard to recommend Similar but better cultivars exist M. didyma Jacob Cline, M. fisutlosa Claire Grace Need further selection M. bradburiana, M. clinopodia, M. citriodora, M. punctata Future breeding M. bradburiana for slow rate of spread, early bloom time M. clinopodia and M. bradburiana for improved disease resistance
21 Sun-Loving Phlox ( ) Why trial Phlox? Powdery mildew New cultivars Several species not used in horticulture 94 accessions 8 species
22 Early Garden Selections 1800 s beginning of P. paniculata selections (European and American) Early 1900s George Arends, Wilhelm Pfitzer, Victor Lemoine and many others By 1917 there were 584 named selections!!! Post WWII surge Cpt. Bertram Hanmer Bunbury (B.H.B.)

36 P. amplifolia (4.1)
37 P. Minnie Pearl (4.2)
38 Garden Culture Full sun Moist, fertile soil Not too hot compact cv s poor performance Dry tolerant pulchra latifolia/ovata pilosa amplifolia
39 Powdery Mildew Foliar disease more stress=more disease generally not fatal leaf defoliation Most resistant cv s Jeana Delta Snow David glaberrima N3 Springfall glaberrima Morris Berd Forever Pink carolina Kim amplifolia
40 Fragrance Not all cultivars are fragrant no frag, mild frag, fragrant, very fragrant Very Fragrant cv s Robert Poore Dick Weaver David Blue Paradise
41 Ecological Value Native species? Cultivars? Hybrids? Citizen Science observations Graduate level research
42 Pollinator Watch Team
43 Phlox Butterfly Preference Longwood Graduate Student- Keith Nevison Phlox paniculata Jeana Not nectar amount Not sugar concentration Size of flower tube?
44 Pollinator Watch Team Citizen scientists counted butterfly and hummingbird visits Hummingbirds need large didyma-size flowers (usually red cv s are this size) Butterflies prefer high quantities, mediumsized flowers
45 Monarda Pollinator Preference Mt. Cuba Center Fellow- Owen Cass What characteristics cause differences? Color # of flowers Flower morphology (size, shape) Nectar quantity Nectar sugar concentration Nectar recharge
46 Coreopsis Pollinator Preference Mt. Cuba Center Fellow- Owen Cass What characteristics cause differences? Color # of flowers Flower morphology (size, shape) Amount of pollen Pollen nutrition
