Abstract

A new and distinct Sutera cultivar named ‘DANCOP27’ is disclosed, characterized by having large, pink flowers, with a distinctive purple center halo, a compact, mounded and upright plant habit and continuous flowering. The new variety is a Sutera, normally produced as an outdoor garden or container plant.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: Sutera cordata.
Variety denomination: ‘DANCOP27’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The new Sutera cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor, Gabriel Danziger, in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel. The objective of the breeding program was to produce plants of Sutera cordata with compact habits and large pink flowers. The seed parent is the unpatented, proprietary seedling variety referred to as Sutera cordata cv.5-259. The pollen parent is unknown as ‘DANCOP27’ is a result of a plannned open pollination in which the pollen parent is impossible to distinguish.
The new variety was discovered in May 2006 by the inventor, in a group of seedlings resulting from that crossing, in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘DANCOP27’ by vegetative cuttings was first performed at a commercial greenhouse in Moshav Mishmar Hashiva, Israel in June 2006 and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘DANCOP27’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, day length, and light intensity, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘DANCOP27’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘DANCOP27’ as a new and distinct Sutera cultivar:
    • 1. Compact plant habit.
    • 2. Very large flowers.
    • 3. Unique pink flower coloration, with a darker ring near the corolla tube.
    • 4. Trailing plant habit.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DANCOP27’ are similar to plants of the seed parent, Sutera cordata ‘cv.5-259’ in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘DANCOP27’ produce lighter pink flowers, with a distinct purple halo. Additionally, plants of the new variety are of a more mounded plant habit than the female parent.
COMMERCIAL COMPARISON
Plants of the new cultivar ‘DANCOP27’ are similar to plants of the commercial variety ‘DANCOP19, ’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 18,116 in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘DANCOP27’ have larger flowers, of a lighter pink, with a darker halo in the center. The new variety also has a more trailing plant habit and larger leaves than ‘DANCOP19.’
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘DANCOP27’ grown in a greenhouse, in a 13 cm basket. Age of the plant photographed is approximately 3 months from a rooted cutting.
FIG. 2 illustrates in full color a close up of a typical bloom of ‘DANCOP27.’
The photographs were taken using conventional techniques and although colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance it is as accurate as possible by conventional photographic techniques.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
