Abstract

'Borlyn' differs from its parent 'Old Gold' and other related varieties primarily in having more yellow-gold coloration which is less seasonally affected.

Show the legal claimThe single numbered claim as granted — the legal text that defines what this patent covers.

Having thus described the invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is: 1. The new and distinct variety of evergreen plant as described and illustrated, characterized by its relatively fast growth and its foliage being predominantly golden yellow in color at the tips thereof and extending along the branches thereof, and ranging to a relatively dark green near the zone of juncture with the supporting branches, giving the entire plant a bright color throughout its body with a relatively fine, lacy and dense growth habit; its ability to withstand temperature changes with only slight alteration in color; its compact body and broad full base growing very close to the ground and remaining vital and true as to color throughout said base.
