History | The new cultivar Schizachyrium scoparium 'Standing Ovation', was discovered by Steven M. Castorani and Timothy McGinty as a naturally occurring whole plant mutation in a trail bed in Landenberg, Pennsylvania, in 2003, growing amongst plants of Schizachyrium scoparium 'The Blues', (not patented). The parentage is unknown, however, 'The Blues' is considered a likely parent based on the characteristics of the new cultivar and its proximity. Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by division and tissue culture has shown that the unique features are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations. Schizachyrium scoparium 'Standing Ovation' was introduced by North Creek Nurseries in Pennsylvania. It was issued U.S. Plant Patent #25,202 in December of 2014. |
