Abstract

NCDX1′ is a new Deutzia plant distinguished by a compact, low-growing, rounded/spreading plant habit and prolific, white flowers.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: The Latin name of the novel plant variety disclosed herein is Deutzia sp.
Variety denomination: The inventive variety of Deutzia sp. disclosed herein has been given the varietal denomination ‘NCDX1’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Deutzia, botanically known as Deutzia sp., and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘NCDX1’. This new Deutzia is a product of a breeding program conducted by the inventor in Mills River, N.C. The objective of the breeding program was to develop new Deutzia cultivars with improved flowering characteristics and smaller growth habits.
The new Deutzia plant originated from controlled crosses in Mills River, N.C. in March 2007 between Deutzia gracilis ‘Nikko’, not patented, as the female parent and Deutzia×rosea ‘Carminea’, not patented, as the male parent.
The first asexual reproduction of Deutzia sp. ‘NCDX1’ was carried out in May, 2007 by rooting stem cuttings in Mills River, N.C. Deutzia sp. ‘NCDX1’ roots readily from softwood cuttings treated with a basal dip of 2,000 to 4,000 ppm indole butyric acid (potassium salt) in water. ‘NCDX1’ has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive asexual propagations of stem cuttings.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following are the unique and distinguishing characteristics of Deutzia sp. ‘NCDX1’ when grown under normal horticultural practices in Mills River, N.C. These characteristics been repeatedly observed and in combination distinguish ‘NCDX1’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
    • 1. Compact, low-growing, rounded/spreading plant habit.
    • 2. Prolific, white flowers.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
This new Deutzia sp. cultivar is illustrated by the accompanying photographs which show the plant's form, foliage, and flowers. The colors shown are as true as can be reasonably obtained by conventional photographic procedures. Colors in the photographs may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description, which accurately describe the colors of the new cultivar.
FIG. 1 is a color photograph of and individual plant of ‘NCDX1’, age three years, in bloom taken in Grand Haven, Mich.
FIG. 2 is a color photograph of the panicled inflorescence of ‘NCDX1’, age three years, taken in Mills River, N.C.”
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
