Abstract

A new variety of Verbena named ‘KLEVP09390’ particularly characterized by large flowers, an early flowering time, and good branching, is disclosed.

Description

Genus and species: Verbena×Hybrida.
Variety denomination: ‘KLEVP09390’.
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention comprises a new and distinct variety of Verbena, botanically known as Verbena×Hybrida, and hereinafter referred to by the variety name ‘KLEVP09390’. ‘KLEVP09390’ was discovered as a seedling resulting from a cross conducted in December 2005 in Cobbitty, New South Wales, Australia between the proprietary female Verbena parent, ‘04.05.100’ (unpatented) and the proprietary male Verbena parent, ‘04.10.01’ (unpatented). A single plant selection was subsequently chosen for further evaluation and for asexual propagation.
The new variety was first propagated via vegetative cuttings in December 2005 in Cobbitty, New South Wales, Australia, and has been asexually reproduced repeatedly by vegetative cuttings. ‘KLEVP09390’ has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive asexual propagations via vegetative cuttings.
Plant Breeder's Rights for this variety have not been applied for. ‘KLEVP09390’ has not been made publicly available or sold more than one year prior to filing of this application.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following are the most outstanding and distinguishing characteristics of this new variety when grown under normal commercial practices in a greenhouse in Stuttgart, Germany.
    • 1. Large flowers;
    • 2. An early flowering time; and
    • 3. Good branching.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
This new Verbena plant is illustrated by the accompanying photograph which shows inflorescences and foliage of the plant. The colors shown are as true as can be reasonably obtained by conventional photographic procedures. The photograph was taken in Spring 2009 of a 12-week-old plant grown from rooted cuttings in a 12 centimeter pot and in a greenhouse (glasshouse) in Stuttgart, Germany under conditions which approximate those generally used in commercial practice.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW VARIETY
The following detailed descriptions set forth the distinctive characteristics of ‘KLEVP09390’. The data which define these characteristics were collected from asexual reproductions carried out in Stuttgart, Germany. The plant history was taken on 12-week-old plants in 12 centimeter pots that were pinched once at week 10 and grown in a greenhouse. The color readings were determined under natural light. Color references are to The R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London (R.H.S.), Fifth Edition (2007).
