| 2 | PI 667656 | 'Vintage' | Rubus idaeus L. subsp. idaeus | Oregon, United States | COR | | | 2011 | DEVELOPED | 2010 | | | | | Genetic material | The U.S. Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service, the Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station and the Washington Agricultural Research Center announce the release of an outstanding flavored, primocane fruiting red raspberry for the fresh market. VINTAGE, tested as ORUS 2786-5, was selected in Corvallis, Oregon in 2003 from a population grown from open pollinated seed of `Isabel' red raspberry. 'Isabel' is a patented cultivar (PP9,340) developed by Sweetbriar Development, Inc. (Watsonville, CA) that has proprietary selections as parents. VINTAGE is being released primarily due to its outstanding fresh fruit quality, especially flavor and bright color, in a primocane fruiting red raspberry that is suited for the fresh market.
VINTAGE has been evaluated most extensively in trials at Oregon State University's North Willamette Research and Extension Center (Aurora, Ore.; OSU-NWREC) and in USDA-ARS plots in Corvallis, Ore. VINTAGE plants are similarly vigorous to 'Heritage' but the canes tend to be not as stiffly erect or as tall. The canes have prickles that are denser basipetally and tend to be slightly less prickly than `Heritage'. The canes have shown no serious cane diseases.
VINTAGE ripens ahead of `Heritage' but later than `Autumn Bliss', `Chinook', and 'Rafzaqu' ('HimboTop' (R) ). The average harvest date of 5% ripe fruit is around 23-25 August, of 50% ripe fruit is 9-18 September, and of 95% ripe fruit is 7-8 October in the Willamette Valley of Oregon. VINTAGE has yields that are comparable to `Heritage', being slightly less in one trial and slightly greater in another. VINTAGE has consistently produced yields around 1.2-1.9 kg/plant.
VINTAGE fruit are similar in shape to `Heritage' but they are slightly less conical and more rounded. The fruit is attractive, with uniformly sized, shaped, and arranged drupelets. While the fruit are rated as very good for drupelet coherence, they may not hold together as tightly as `Heritage' but they have a comparable firmness. The fruit separate more easily from the plant than those of 'Heritage'. The fruit are medium size (3.2-3.4g) and 20-35% larger than `Heritage'. One of the most outstanding characteristics of VINTAGE is its bright red, attractive color, much brighter and less dark than the fruit of `Heritage'. VINTAGE fresh fruit are very sweet and rate as excellent for flavor, much better than those of `Heritage'.
VINTAGE fruit have a combination of excellent sweetness (soluble solids 12.4-12.8%), moderate pH (3.41-3.45) and a moderate titratable acidity (11.5-11.9) helping to give the fruit a sweet flavor but the lower titratable acidity may prevent it from being a good processing berry. In general the soluble solids and pH are higher than those of `Heritage' and the titratable acidity almost half of those for `Heritage' fruit. The fruit texture when the fruit are eaten is more pleasant, less dry and seedy, than those of `Heritage'.
VINTAGE is introduced as a very sweet, outstanding flavored, bright red, and large primocane fruiting red raspberry with excellent overall quality for the fresh market and yields comparable to current industry standards. VINTAGE should be adapted wherever other primocane fruiting raspberries can be successfully grown. | 1860779 | PI 667656 |

It originated from a cross of NY 817 [Hilton x NY600 (Durham x September)] x 'Hilton', and was previously tested as NY 1009. Winter hardy in Zone 5, the plants of 'Prelude' are vigorous and sucker freely. 'Prelude' fruit average 2.2 grams per berry, are positioned openly with good placement, and are very easy to harvest. 'Prelude' also bears fruit on primocanes in the fall. The total average fall production is slightly less than 'Heritage' and the average fruit size is slightly higher. In test plots conducted at the Geneva Experiment Station, Kevin Maloney, who manages the program at Geneva, reports that plant vigor and fruit production of 'Prelude' has not declined when summer cropping annually.

It was selected from progeny of a cross between 'Hilton' ('Newburgh' x 'September') and N.Y. 598 ('Newburgh' x 'St. Walfried'). This cross was made in 1963, and the selection was made in 1966. 'Titan' has undergone field testing for many years at Geneva and on various commercial farms in the Northeast. Although it was an advanced selection, 'Titan' also was included in replicated yield trials conducted by P. Crandall, Vancouver, Wash.Titan produces a very large mild flavor and long conical fruit. It's bright red color and large size makes it an attractive fruit for redi-pick or you-pick sales. It is winter hardy to 15 degrees F. Although Titan can be very productive, it has shown succeptability to root rot and should be grown on beds or light soils. The exceptionally large fruit has also been reported to be soft under some growing conditions.'Titan' does not appear to be resistant to important diseases. Like most other cultivars, it is susceptible to tobacco streak virus, raspberry bushy dwarf virus, and tomato ringspot virus. Likewise, there is little evidence of resistance to raspberry mosaic virus or raspberry leaf curl virus, although these 2 viruses are of secondary importance in New York. 'Titan' appears to be as susceptible to cane disease and preharvest and postharvest fruit rots as the other cultivars grown in the Northeast.'Titan' is not well-suited to mechanical harvest as is practiced in the Northwest, because its fruit clasps the torus quite firmly. This characteristic does not impede hand harvesting.

Focke | Wyoming, United States | COR | | | 1994 | DEVELOPED | | | | | | Cultivar | Notice to nurserymen relative to the naming and release for propagation of a new red raspberry, 'Plainsman' (dated February 17, 1993) : The Agricultural Research Service hereby releases to nurserymen for propagation PLAINSMAN, a new cold-hardy, productive red raspberry. PLAINSMAN, tested as selection 72-1, originated from a cross of September x Cheyenne seedling 62-17 (Rubus idaeus strigosus). Cheyenne 62-17 is a 3rd generation seedling from plants collected in the wild in Shell Canyon near Greybull, Wyoming, in 1952 and selected for the new-wood, early, summer-fruiting character. Crosses resulting in the two varieties were made in 1964 and the seedlings were grown at Cheyenne, Wyoming, in 1965. It was grown, selected and tested by Gene S. Howard, a retired Agricultural Research Service horticulturist. Fruit of PLAINSMAN is conic in shape and up to 28 mm in diameter. Color for this variety is medium to deep red and the flesh is medium in firmness. Yield is medium to high. Flavor is as flavorful as standard raspberries. Fruit is borne on new-wood of the current season's growth and ripens in southeastern Wyoming by the first week of August. First ripe fruit averages 3 to 4 weeks earlier than August Red. The plants are everbearing in nature and the fruiting season lasts for about 6 weeks or until heavy frosts occurs. Plants of PLAINSMAN have excellent vigor and produce numerous canes. Plants are somewhat larger and more vigorous than either PATHFINDER or TRAILBLAZER. Plants will make solid beds unless cultivated and kept in rows. Above ground canes are frozen back or killed to near ground level over winter. They may be mowed with a rotary mower and raked off before the new growth begins in spring thus eliminating hand pruning and reservoirs for diseases. Botanical characters more nearly resemble the taxonomic descriptions for R. idaeus strigosus than R. idaeus although characters of both are present. PLAINSMAN is recommended for trial plantings in Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, South Dakota, Idaho, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Utah. Foliar diseases were not reported from cooperators in the areas recommended for trial. The plant material has not been tested for virus, but the plants have retained good production, growth, and suckering for over 20 years, suggesting it has virus tolerance. Plant material has been sent to the National Clonal Germplasm Repository for virus evaluation. A limited number of plants for propagation will be available to researchers and nurserymen. Written requests should be sent to Gerald E. Schuman, High Plains Grasslands Research Station, 8408 Hildreth Road, Cheyenne, WY 82009

| 25 | Ames 35216 | Potato Creek SP | Monarda sp. | Indiana, United States | NC7 |  | | 2019 | COLLECTED | 09/02/2019 | Potato Creek State Park located approximately 2.6 miles northeast of North Liberty, T36N R1E extreme eastern edge of NW 1/4 SW 1/4 Sec. 23. | 41.55439400, -86.38375900 | 222 | Degraded floodplain, along sides of elevated road bed. | Wild material | This taxa is currently undescribed and according to Campbell and Medley in The atlas of vascular plants in Kentucky (Accessed 06 September 2019) was provisionally named Monarda serotina by R.T. Simmers. Described as a broad-leaved form of M. fistulosa, generally intermediate between M. fistulosa and M. clinopodia, with probable hybrid origin. Typcial habitat is mesic woods and edges on lowlands. In contrast to M. fistulosa, this taxon has longer petioles (usually 2-3 cm versus 0.5-2.0 cm), lower leaf surfaces with scattered spreading hairs, and corollas are paler pink at tips to almost white with peak flowering occurring prior to M. fistulosa by approximately 1-2 weeks. Leaves are rather rugose, where upper leaf tissue between veins is visibly raised. This accession represents genetics from northern Indiana (Potato Creek State Park). Plants at the collection site in nature peaked flowering near 8 July 2019 where flower colors were more lavender in sun but pale in shade (Namestnik, S., personal communication, 15 July 2020). Peak fruiting occurs mid-August. Average height of plants sampled in nature estimated at 4.5' in height. | 2097752 | Ames 35216 |
| 26 | Ames 27962 | Quercus Wilderness Area | Amelanchier arborea (F. Michx.) Fernald | Iowa, United States | NC7 |  | | 2003 | COLLECTED | 05/26/2003 | Quercus Wilderness Area located 6.75 miles south, southwest of Oskaloosa, T74N R16W SE ¼ NE ¼ of Sec. 23. | 41.19888889, -92.66111111 | 244 | Mature woods on very sandy soils. Typically restricted to east, west or south facing slopes at either summits or mid-slopes. | Wild material | The native range of Amelanchier arborea is concentrated in the eastern half of the U.S. (Little, 1977). This accession represents a collection of A. arborea germplasm from the western edge of the species native range, specifically the southern portion of Iowa. As of 2025, the top ten largest specimens in the state of Iowa are located at Quercus Wilderness where this accession was collected. Iowa’s largest specimen of A. arborea specimen at Quercus Wilderness was measured at 14.17" DBH, 51.83’ in height, and 27.00’ average crown spread for a total of 102.955 points (Rouw, M., personal communication, 12 December 2023). Fall color (orange-red) tends to peak in the middle of September (Iowa) with peak fruiting occurring in early May. Bark smooth, grey. | 1700483 | Ames 27962 |
