Abstract

A new and distinct Lavandula cultivar named ‘IBPR910-2’ is disclosed, characterized by a long flowering season and dense plant habit. The new variety can also be characterized by long and wide infertile bracts of strong iridescent pink coloration and short peduncle length. The new variety is a Lavandula, normally produced as an outdoor garden or container plant.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: Lavandula stoechas.
Variety denomination: ‘IBPR910-2’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The new Lavandula cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor, Howard Bentley, in Wonga Park, Australia. The objective of the breeding program was to produce new Lavandula varieties for ornamental commercial applications. The cross resulting in this new variety was made during October of 2008.
The parent varieties are both proprietary, undistributed seedlings from the inventor's own breeding program. The new variety was first selecteded in September of 2009 by the inventor in a group of seedlings resulting from the 2008 crossing, in a research greenhouse in Wonga Park, Australia.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar was performed by vegetative cuttings. This was performed at a research greenhouse in Wonga Park, Australia in September of 2009 and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type through at least 6 successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘IBPR910-2’ 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 ‘IBPR910-2’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘IBPR910-2’ as a new and distinct Lavandula cultivar:
    • 1. Strong iridescent pink infertile bract coloration.
    • 2. Long length and width of infertile bracts.
    • 3. Dense plant habit.
    • 4. Long flowering season.
    • 5. Short peduncle length.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘IBPR910-2’ are similar to plants of the seed parent, in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘IBPR910-2’ produce longer, wider and greater iridescent pink infertile bracts coloration than those of the seed parent. ‘IBPR910-2’ is also a plant with greater vigor and larger mature size than the seed parent.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘IBPR910-2’ are similar to plants of the pollen parent; in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of the new cultivar ‘IBPR910-2’ produce wider infertile bracts. Additionally, plants of the new variety have a denser growth habit as well as a longer flowering season than the pollen parent.
COMMERCIAL COMPARISON
Plants of the new cultivar ‘IBPR910-2’ are comparable to the variety Lavandula ‘Sweetberry Ruffle’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 22,447. The two Lavandula varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, the new variety IBPR910-2’ differs in producing longer peduncles and stronger iridescent pink coloration of the infertile bracts that the comparator. Additionally ‘IBPR910-2’ produces a plant of stronger vigor and larger mature size as well as longer inflorescence than the comparator.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘IBPR910-2’ can also be compared to the commercial variety Lavandula ‘Strawberry Ruffles’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 22,490. These varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however ‘IBPR910-2’ produces wider infertile bracts of stronger iridescent pink coloration as well as longer peduncles than those of the comparator. Additionally ‘IBPR910-2’ produces a plant of stronger vigor and denser plant habit than the comparator.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘IBPR910-2’ grown outdoors in Australia. Age of the plant photographed is approximately 40 weeks from a rooted cutting. 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.
