Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Lantana plant named ‘Robpatgra’, characterized by its upright and somewhat outwardly spreading plant habit; uniformly mounded plant form; freely branching habit; long internodes; open plant habit; freely and continuously flowering habit; flowers that are light purple in color; and purple-colored fruits.
Description
Botanical designation: Lantana camara.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Robpatgra’.
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Lantana plant, botanically known as Lantana camara, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name Robpatgra.
The new Lantana is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Grain Valley, Mo. The objective of the breeding program is to create new freely-flowering Lantanas with attractive flower coloration.
The new Lantana originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in August, 2001 of a proprietary Lantana seedling selection identified as code number 00TF-3, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary Lantana seedling selection identified as code number 00TF-2, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Lantana was selected as a single plant from the resulting progeny of the cross-pollination by the Inventor in a controlled environment in Grain Valley, Mo., on the basis of its attractive flower and seed coloration.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal cuttings in a controlled environment in Grain Valley, Mo., since September, 2002, has shown that the unique features of this new Lantana are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the cultivar Robpatgra have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment and culture such as temperature and light intensity, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Robpatgra’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Robpatgra’ as a new and distinct Lantana cultivar:
-
- 1. Upright and somewhat outwardly spreading plant habit; uniformly mounded plant form.
- 2. Freely branching habit and long internodes, open habit.
- 3. Freely and continuously flowering habit.
- 4. Flowers that are light purple in color.
- 5. Purple-colored fruits.
Plants of the new Lantana can be compared to plants of the parents. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Grain Valley, Mo., plants of the new Lantana differed from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Lantana produced more fruits per plants than plants of the female parent selection.
- 2. Fruits of plants of the new Lantana were larger than fruits of plants of the female parent selection.
In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Grain Valley, Mo., plants of the new Lantana differed from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Lantana were smaller than plants of the male parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Lantana had shorter internodes than plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Lantana can also be compared to plants of the Lantana cultivar Lavender Popcorn, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Grain Valley, Mo., plants of the new Lantana differed from plants of the cultivar Lavender Popcorn in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Lantana produced more fruits per plants than plants of the cultivar Lavender Popcorn.
- 2. Fruits of plants of the new Lantana were larger than fruits of plants of the cultivar Lavender Popcorn.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new cultivar, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Lantana. Plants used for the photographs were grown in an outdoor nursery in Grain Valley, Mo. for about three months.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Robpatgra’ grown in the landscape for about three months.
The photograph on the second sheet comprises a close-up view of typical inflorescences, fruits and leaves of ‘Robpatgra’.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. Plants used for the description were planted in containers after rooting and grown for about 3 months during the spring in an outdoor nursery in Tolar, Tex. During the production of the plants in the greenhouse, temperatures ranged from about 18° C. to about 35° C.
