Benefits of technology

[0008]Trident maple is typically seedling grown through random open-pollination. This method creates great variability of canopy height and width, branch structure, leaf color and size, and bark exfoliation. This genetic diversity has limited the landscape use of this tree due to a lack

Problems solved by technology

This genetic diversity has limited the landscape use of this tree due to a lack of uniformity.

Botanical Description of the Plant

[0018]This invention has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary with variations in growing environment, without, however, any variations in genotype. ‘ABMTF’ is currently being grown in fields adjacent to 6327 Hwy. 20, Loganville, Walton County, Ga. This particular area of Walton County has a clay loam soil type located in USDA Zone 7 and has an average rainfall of 30-60 inches annually. The following is a detailed description of ‘ABMTF’ Trident maple at age seven with color terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticulture Society (R.H.S.) Colour Chart, except where the context indicates a term having its ordinary dictionary meaning.[0019]Parentage: Chance seedling random open-pollinated Trident maple parentage purchased from supplier in Florida.[0020]Propagation: Genetically stable characteristics reproduced through asexual, vegetative softwood cuttings.[0021]Locality where grown and observed: Cit...

Abstract

A Trident maple tree (Acer buergerianum) named ‘ABMTF’ having an upright oval canopy, dense branching, smooth bark that has minimal exfoliation, and vigorous growth rate, and is capable of being reproduced reliably from vegetative cuttings.

Description

[0001]Latin name of genus and species: Acer buergerianum. [0002]Variety denomination: Trident maple tree which I have named ‘ABMTF’.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONDiscovery[0003]I discovered my new tree in a nursery production field of Trident maples purchased from a nursery in Florida that provided these trees as a randomly open-pollinated Acer buergerianum seedlings during the winter of 1995. This group of seedlings was grown in a liner field and then transplanted to an adjacent production field in Loganville, Walton County, Ga. during the winter of 1996. It was here that I discovered the claimed cultivator ABMTF.Propagation[0004]‘ABMTF’ was asexually propagated by the method of vegetative cutting at my direction in the summer of 2000 at Moon's Tree Farm in Loganville, Ga. Softwood cuttings three to five inches long were treated with 3000-ppm potassium indole-3-butyric acid (KIBA). The cuttings were then placed in peat pots filled with horticultural growing media and then intermittent...
