Description Of NC7 Ornamental Trials:
The NC-7 Regional Ornamental Plant Trials, began in 1954 through the efforts of a small group of dedicated horticulturists under the leadership of Professor S.A. McCrory of South Dakota State College (now University). The north central United States is a region of climatic extremes, and many parts of the region have alkaline soils that developed under grasslands. Because of these conditions, the diversity found in commercially available woody plants adapted to the area is less than that found in most other parts of our nation. The NC-7 Regional Ornamental Plant Trials were started with the ultimate goal of expanding the range of useful plants in the nursery trade. The emphasis in this program has been placed on detailed, long-term evaluations at a broad range of sites rather than on promotion of new plants. The NC-7 Trials rely on a network of horticultural cooperators located at sites scattered across the Central United States. Cooperators establish plantings, observe and evaluate the plants through the seasons, and prepare performance reports one, five, and ten years after planting. These reports are sent to the North Central Regional Plant Introduction Station (NCRPIS) in Ames, Iowa where they are recorded. Because of the broad range of environments found among the trial sites, it is unusual for any particular trial plant to perform well at a majority of the sites, making system-wide releases difficult. However, when plants perform especially well at sites, the NCRPIS Horticulturist assists trial site cooperators in introducing the new plants, with any official releases initiated through the cooperators' institutions rather than through the Plant Introduction Station.
Summary Of The Ten Year Performance:
Thirteen out of sixteen sites maintained this accession through the 1-year trial period; eight sites maintained this accession through the 5-year trial period; and seven sites located at Chanhassen, MN; Lincoln, NE; Urbana, IL; Carrington, ND; Ames, IA; Absaraka, ND; and Fort Collins, CO maintained this accession through the 10-year trial period. Moderate to severe plant injury was caused by large animal browsing (Ames, IA and Absaraka, ND). After plants were established, little to no plant loss occurred. Average plant height was 1.91m and 3.71m after the 5-year and 10-year trial period, respectively. Average plant spread was 0.98m and 2.52m after the 5-year and 10-year trial period, respectively. Foliage quality was rated as clean all season by all trial sites except at Chanhassen, MN and Ames, IA which reported leaf galls and leaf spots. Fall color was variable in both quality and color from a nice yellow-gold (Carrington, ND), fair yellow-orange (Fort Collins, CO), rich tan (Lincoln, NE), to reddish tones (East Lansing, MI). Sites located at Lincoln, NE; Carrington, ND; and Absaraka, ND were the only sites that recorded flowers and fruits. Only the Lincoln, Urbana, Fort Collins, and Absaraka sites recommended this accession due to excellent uniformity; branching shape; durability; beautiful, deeply cut foliage of high quality; and vigor. 2001.
