Benefits of technology

The patent is about a new variety of winged elm tree called "UAMTF" that has a pyramidal growth habit with a strong central leader and minimal cork-like wings. This new variety is asexually reproduced by rooted cuttings and is resistant to powdery mildew and other leaf-borne illnesses. It has been shown to perform well in both the landscape and nursery settings. The technical effects of this patent are a unique and improved variety of winged elm tree with consistent growth and disease resistance.

Problems solved by technology

In nursery settings, Winged Elm trees often require a significant amount of effort to maintain a central leader.
Seedling Winged Elm tree is variable in growth rate, habit, and leaf characteristics, and overall consistency is difficult to maintain in a production system.

Botanical Description of the Plant

[0025]The following is a detailed description of ‘UAMTF’ Winged Elm tree with color terminology in accordance with The Royal Horticulture Society (R.H.S.) Colour Chart (2001) except where the context indicates a term having its ordinary dictionary meaning.

[0026]The named cultivar has not been observed under all growing conditions, and variations may occur as a result of different growing conditions. All progeny of my new variety, insofar as have been observed by the inventor, have remained genetically stable in all characteristics described hereinafter. Other than as set out hereinafter, as of this time, no other characteristics have been observed by the inventor different from common Winged Elm trees.[0027]Scientific name: Ulmus alata ‘UAMTP’.[0028]Parentage: Chance discovery by the inventor, Dwayne Moon, of a selection found in the wild in October 2007 from a field in Oconee, Ga.[0029]Propagation:[0030]Root description.—The named cultivar is graft...

Abstract

A new and distinct variety of Winged Elm tree named ‘UAMTF’ substantially as herein shown, illustrated and described, characterized particularly as to novelty by its strong central leader as well as the refined, graceful branching which is attained through minimal and insignificant cork-like wings in comparison to the heavy wings evident in seedling Winged Elm. These form differences, along with its resistance to the powdery mildew and other leaf-borne illnesses found in seedling Winged Elm makes my selection uniquely different from all known patent selections and seedlings.

Description

[0001]Latin name of genus and species: Ulmus alata. [0002]Varietal denomination: Winged Elm tree which I have named ‘UAMTF’.CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0003]Not applicable.STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT[0004]Not applicable.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0005]The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of Winged Elm tree (Ulmus alata), which I have named ‘UAMTF’.Discovery[0006]The new Ulmus alata is a product of chance discovery. The new variety ‘UAMTF’ is the result of a selection made by the inventor, Dwayne Moon, from an Ulmus alata found in the wild in October of 2007 from a field in Oconee County, Ga. Evaluation of this tree continues in a field in Oconee County, Ga.Propagation[0007]‘UAMTF’ was asexually propagated by grafting softwood cuttings at the direction of Dwayne Moon from May 1st through Aug. 1, 2008 in Loganville, Walton County, Ga. The propagation process is done by selecting actively growing shoot tips, taking...
