Abstract
A new Verbena plant particularly distinguished by its very large rose pink flower, early flowering, no seed set and hanging habit.
Description
The present invention comprises a new distinct cultivar of Verbena, botanically known as Verbena×hyrida. The new cultivar is propagated from cuttings resulting from the cross of ‘U1029’ and ‘U1030’. ‘U1029’ is a pink flowering Verbena having a semi-erect habit. ‘U1029’ is not commercially available and is not known by any synonyms. ‘U1030’ is a pink flowering Verbena having a spreading habit. ‘U1030’ is not commercially available and is not known by any synonyms. Neither ‘U1029’ or ‘U1030’ has been patented. As a result of this cross the present cultivar was created in 1996 in Enkhuizen, Netherlands and has been repeatedly asexually reproduced by cuttings in Enkhuizen, Netherlands and Sarrians, France over a three year period. It has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive propagations, and this novelty appears to be firmly fixed.
This new Verbena plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographic drawings which show blooms, buds and foliage of the plant in full color, the color shown being as true as can be reasonably obtained by conventional photographic procedures.
The following detailed descriptions set forth the distinctive characteristics of this new Verbena. The data which defines these characteristics were collected from asexual reproductions carried out in Enkhuizen, Netherlands. The plant history was taken on 14 weeks old plants, blossomed under natural light in a greenhouse. Color readings were taken in the greenhouse under ambient light. Color references are primarily to the R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London.
Classification — Botanical: Verbena×hybrida.
Parentage:
Female parent.—A seedling named ‘U1029’ is one of our seedlings from our U-generation of plants bred in 1991.

Color:
Upper bloom surface.—When opening rose 52B, after 4-6 days pink 54D.
Lower bloom surface.—Pink 54D.
Eye: A very small (1 mm) green-white eye (155D) is present. The three lower petals exhibit this green-white coloration at their bases.
No. of petals: Gamopetalous, five lobed.
Overlapping of petals: Separate.
Size of the petal:
Length.—6-8 mm.
Width.—5-7 mm.

Lastingness of individual blooms: New florets continue to open in one spike over an approximate 2 week period.
One pistil and four stamens in pairs; color for both is yellow green 150C. The pistil size is 16-18 mm in length. Pollen is not present. The filaments and anthers are fused to the corolla. The anthers are enclosed and not a prominent feature of the flower. ‘Salmena’ doesn't set seed at all.
Type of roots: Fibrous. Roots start to grow on every part of the stem that contacts the soil, so not only at the nodes.
Physiological and ecological characteristics: Good tolerance to heat and cold. Strong resistance to pests and diseases, particularly powdery mildew.
