Abstract

A new and distinct variety of Angelonia plant named ‘G2X-11996-3’ particularly characterized by an upright, dense basal-branching plant habit and having violet-blue flower color is disclosed.

Description

Genus and species: Angelonia angustifolia.
Variety denomination: ‘G2X-11996-3’.
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention comprises a new and distinct variety of Angelonia plant, botanically known as Angelonia angustifolia and hereinafter referred to by the variety name ‘G2X-11996-3’. The new variety originated from a cross conducted in July 2010 in Bellefonte, Pa. between the female parent Angelonia plant ‘C282-1’ (unpatented) and the male parent Angelonia plant ‘Anwhitim’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 19,866). A single plant selection was subsequently chosen for further evaluation and asexual propagation.
‘G2X-11996-3’ was first propagated via vegetative cuttings and via aseptic in vitro tissue culture in October 2011 in Bellefonte, Pa. and has been asexually reproduced by vegetative cuttings in Bellefonte, Pa. for approximately 5 generations. Concurrently, ‘G2X-11996-3’ has been propagated via aseptic in vitro tissue culture since October 2011. ‘G2X-11996-3’ has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive asexual propagations via vegetative cuttings and in vitro tissue culture.
Plant Breeder's Rights for this variety have not been applied for. ‘G2X-11996-3’ has not been sold or made publicly available anywhere in the world more than one year prior to the filing date of this application.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following are the most outstanding and distinguishing characteristic of this new variety when grown under normal horticultural practices in a greenhouse in Bellefonte, Pa.
    • 1. Upright, dense basal-branching habit; and
    • 2. Violet-blue flower color.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
This new Angelonia plant is illustrated by the accompanying photographs; the colors shown are as true as can be reasonably obtained by conventional photographic procedures. The photographs are of a whole plant about 19 weeks old.
FIG. 1 shows a whole plant of ‘G2X-11996-3’ in a trade 1-gallon pot.
FIG. 2 shows a close-up of an inflorescence of ‘G2X-11996-3’.
FIG. 3 shows a close-up of an individual floret of ‘G2X-11996-3’.
 DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW VARIETY
The following detailed description sets forth the distinctive characteristics of Angelonia angustifolia ‘G2X-11996-3’. The data which define these characteristics was collected from asexual reproductions carried out in Bellefonte, Pa. The plant history was taken on June 7 of 2013 on 18 week old plants grown in 1-gallon pots. The plants were grown from vegetatively propagated cuttings from mother stock grown in a controlled climate greenhouse with natural light. Color readings were taken under natural light in the greenhouse. Color references are primarily to the Pantone color chart, #747XR second printing (1987-1988 edition).
