Abstract

A new cultivar of Lobularia plant named ‘Inlbusnowhi’ that is characterized by a compact rounded and mounding habit and small white flowers with lilac colored sepals.

Description

Botanical classification: Lobularia maritima.
Variety denomination: ‘Inlbusnowhi’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Lobularia plant botanically known as Lobularia maritima and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Inlbusnowhi’.
The new Lobularia is the product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor in Gensingen, Germany. The objective of the breeding program is to create new Lobularia cultivars with compact habits and unique flower colors.
‘Inlbusnowhi’ originated from a crossing in the Summer of 2009 of the female or seed parent Lobularia ‘Inlbusnopr’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,594) and the male or pollen parent Lobularia ‘Inlbusnopr’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,594). Lobularia ‘Inlbusnopr’ is a crossing of a Lobularia canariensis as the female, or seed parent and a Lobularia muritime as the male or pollen parent and is heterozygous. The self-crossing was performed to produce a range of plants with intermediate types. The resulting seeds were subsequently planted and grown. The cultivar ‘Inlbusnowhi’ was selected by the inventor in the Fall of 2009 as a single plant within the progeny of the stated cross in Gensingen, Germany.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘Inlbusnowhi’ first occurred by terminal cuttings in the Fall of 2009 in Gensingen, Germany. Since that time, under careful observation, the unique characteristics of the new cultivar have been uniform, stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following represent the distinguishing characteristics of the new Lobularia cultivar ‘Inlbusnowhi’. These traits in combination distinguish ‘Inlbusnowhi’ as a new and distinct cultivar apart from other existing known varieties of Lobularia.
    • 1. Lobularia ‘Inlbusnowhi’ exhibits a compact rounded and mounding habit.
    • 2. Lobularia ‘Inlbusnowhi’ exhibits small white flowers with lilac colored sepals.
The closest comparison cultivar is the parent plant Lobularia ‘Inlbusnopr’. ‘Inlbusnowhi’ is distinguishable from ‘Inlbusnopr’ by the following characteristics:
    • 1. ‘Inlbusnowhi’ exhibits a more rounded and mounding habit.
    • 2. ‘Inlbusnowhi’ has smaller flowers.
    • 3. ‘Inlbusnowhi’ has lilac sepals. The sepals of ‘Inlbusnopr’ are green.
‘Inlbusnowhi’ can be compared to Lobularia ‘White Stream’ (not patented). ‘Inlbusnowhi’ is distinguishable from ‘White Stream’ by the following characteristics:
    • 1. ‘Inlbusnowhi’ exhibits a larger overall size than the overall size of ‘White Stream’.
    • 2. ‘Inlbusnowhi’ has larger flowers than the flowers of ‘White Stream’.
    • 3. ‘Inlbusnowhi’ exhibits a more rounded and mounding habit than ‘White Stream’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
The accompanying photograph illustrates the distinguishing traits of Lobularia ‘Inlbusnowhi’. The plant in the photograph shows an overall view of a 3 month old plant. The photograph was 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.
 BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT
The following is a detailed description of the new Lobularia cultivar named ‘Inlbusnowhi’. Data was collected in Gensingen, Germany from 3 month old glass greenhouse grown plants in 14 cm. diameter containers. The time of year was Winter and the temperature range was 12-14 degrees Centigrade during the day and 10-12 degrees Centigrade at night. The light level was 3000 lux for 14 hours per day. No growth retardants were used. Color determinations are in accordance with The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart 2007 edition, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The growing requirements are similar to the species. ‘Inlbusnowhi’ has not been tested under all possible conditions and phenotypic differences may be observed with variations in environmental, climatic, and cultural conditions, however, without any variance in genotype.
