Abstract

A new Verbena plant named ‘VEAZ0019’ particularly distinguished by the large, purple-violet and white bi-colored inflorescences, deep green foliage, and an outwardly spreading plant habit.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species of the plant claimed: Verbena hybrida.
Varietal denomination: ‘VEAZ0019’.
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention comprises a new Verbena, botanically known as Verbena hybrida, and hereinafter referred to by the variety name ‘VEAZ0019’.
‘VEAZ0019’ is a product of a planned breeding program. The new cultivar has bi-colored, purple-violet and white, large inflorescences, deep green foliage, and an outwardly spreading plant habit.
‘VEAZ0019’ originated from a hybridization made in August 2010 in a greenhouse in Enkhuizen, The Netherlands.
The female parent was an unpatented proprietary plant designated ‘M0128-1’ with purple blue and white flower color and a compact, trailing plant habit.
The male parent of ‘VEAZ0019’ was the proprietary plant designated ‘2153-2’, having a purple-violet flower color and an upright, freely branching plant habit
The seed was sown in February 2011 in a greenhouse in Enkhuizen, The Netherlands. ‘VEAZ0019’ was selected as one flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross in August 2011.
The first act of asexual reproduction of ‘VEAZ0019’ was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were propagated from the initial selection in August 2011 in a greenhouse in Enkhuizen, The Netherlands.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF INVENTION
Horticultural examination of plants grown from cuttings of the plant initiated in August 2011, and continuing thereafter, has demonstrated that the combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for ‘VEAZ0019’ are firmly fixed and are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
‘VEAZ0019’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity, and day length.
A Plant Breeder's Right for this cultivar was applied for in the Community Plant Variety Office on May 3, 2013 (2013/1232). ‘VEAZ0019’ has not been made publicly available more than one year prior to the filing of this application.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be basic characteristics of the new variety. The combination of these characteristics distinguishes this Verbena as a new and distinct variety.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photographic drawings show typical flower and foliage characteristics of ‘VEAZ0019’ with colors being as true as possible with an illustration of this type.
The photographic drawing in FIG. 1 shows three flowering plants of the new variety in a hanging basket and in FIG. 2 a close-up of the inflorescence.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The plant descriptions and measurements were taken in Andijk, The Netherlands on Apr. 7, 2014 indoors in natural light. The plants used were about 10 weeks of age, growing in a 25 cm hanging basket, three plants each, in a greenhouse.
The aforementioned photographs were taken on the same day showing the same three plants in a hanging basket in a greenhouse in Andijk, The Netherlands, as described.
Color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart (R.H.S.) 2001.
