Abstract

A new and distinct early flowering sutera plant with intense violet-blue colored flowers and vigorous growth.

Description

Botanical classification: Sutera cordata.
Varietal denomination: ‘Wesbavio’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Sutera plant known by the varietal name ‘Wesbavio’. The new variety was discovered in 2001 in a selected breeding program in Südlohn, Germany. The new variety is a selection from the cross of proprietary unpatented breeding plants. The growth character of the new variety is similar to its parents but with bigger flowers. The new variety was first asexually reproduced in December 2000 by cuttings in Südlohn, Germany. The new variety has been trial and field tested at Südlohn and has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics and remain true to type through successive propagations.
The following traits in combination distinguish ‘Wesbavio’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Intense colored flowers.
2. Short internodes.
3. Compact growth.
4. Large flowers.
5. Dentate leaf margin.
The new variety has a similar leaf arrangement to the unpatented varieties ‘Seamist’ and ‘Cabane’. However, ‘Wesbavio’ has more compact branches compared to ‘Seamist’ and ‘Cabane’. The leaves of ‘Wesbavio’ have a broader dentation on the margins than ‘Seamist’ and ‘Cabane’. The petals of ‘Wesbavio’ are similar to the compared varieties in arrangement, shape, margin, and apex description.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The accompanying photographic drawing illustrates the new variety, with the color being as nearly true as is possible with color illustrations of this type.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT
The following detailed description sets forth characteristics of the new cultivar. The data which defines these characteristics were collected by asexual reproductions carried out in Südlohn, Germany. Plants for the description were 20 weeks old, grown in a greenhouse at 20-25° C. daytime temperature and at 16-18° C. night temperature with light levels of 3,000-50,000 lux. The color readings were taken on a plant outdoors and in a greenhouse under natural light. Color references are primarily to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London.
