Abstract

A new and distinct Gaura lindheimeri plant with red-purple colored flowers and a long blooming season.

Description

Botanical classification: Gaura lindheimeri.
Varietal denomination: ‘Cherry Brandy’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Gaura lindheimeri known by the varietal name ‘Cherry Brandy’. The new variety was discovered in Niigata, Japan. All trials and selections were conducted in Niigata, Japan. The new variety is the result of a planned breeding program between unpatented, unnamed Gaura lindheimeri cerisier (both parents). The new variety exhibits similar blooming time to both parents, but has a more compact habit and different height, leaf size, and flower color than both parents. The new variety exhibits similar flower color to the unpatented variety ‘Siskyou Pink’, but has uniform foliage with no spotting, a free branching habit, and a different height. The new variety was first asexually reproduced by vegetative terminal cuttings in Niigata, Japan. The new variety has been trial and field tested and has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics and remain true to type through successive propagations.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The accompanying photographic drawings illustrate the new variety, with the color being as nearly true as is possible with color illustrations of this type;
FIG. 1 is a photograph of the new plant;
FIG. 2 is a photograph of the spike and flowers of the new plant; and
FIG. 3 is a photograph of the leaves of the new plant.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT
The following detailed description sets forth the characteristics of the new cultivar grown outside in the open ground and in 15 cm diameter containers with no extra fertilizer in The Netherlands. Plants were about 4 to 5 months old. The data which defines these characteristics were collected by asexual reproductions by cuttings. The color readings were taken in The Netherlands in natural daylight. Color references are primarily to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London.
