Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Lavandula plant named ‘Anouk Deluxe 901’, characterized by its compact and somewhat upright plant habit; freely branching growth habit; dense and bushy appearance; durable narrow leaves; freely flowering habit; light violet blue and dark purple-colored flowers positioned on strong and erect peduncles; and good garden performance.

Description

Botanical designation: Lavandula stoechas.
Cultivar denomination: ‘ANOUK DELUXE 901’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct Lavandula plant, botanically known as Lavandula stoechas, commonly referred to as Lavender and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Anouk Deluxe 901’.
The new Lavender plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Nuis, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program was to develop new strong Lavandula plants with attractive plant form and flower coloration.
The new Lavandula plant originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in August, 2006 of Lavandula stoechas ‘Anouk’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,685, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Lavandula stoechas identified as code number L.722, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Lavandula plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor during 2008 as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Nuis, The Netherlands.
Asexual reproduction of the new Lavandula plant by terminal cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in De Lier, The Netherlands since September, 2009 has shown that the unique features of this new Lavandula plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the new Lavandula have not been observed under all possible combinations of environmental conditions and cultural practices. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environmental conditions such as temperature 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 the new Lavandula plant. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Anouk Deluxe 901’ as a new and distinct Lavandula plant:
    • 1. Compact and somewhat upright plant habit.
    • 2. Freely branching growth habit; dense and bushy appearance.
    • 3. Durable narrow leaves.
    • 4. Freely flowering habit.
    • 5. Light violet blue and dark purple-colored flowers positioned on strong and erect peduncles.
    • 6. Good garden performance.
Plants of the new Lavandula differ from plants of the female parent, ‘Anouk’, primarily in plant habit as plants of the new Lavandula are more compact and bushier than plants of ‘Anouk’.
Plants of the new Lavandula differ from plants of the male parent selection primarily in peduncle length as peduncles of plants of the new Lavandula are shorter than peduncles of plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Lavandula can be compared to plants of the Lavandula stoechas ‘Silver Anouk’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 20,068. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Lavandula differ from plants of ‘Silver Anouk’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Lavandula are more compact and bushier than plants of ‘Silver Anouk’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Lavandula and ‘Silver Anouk’ differ in leaf color.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new Lavandula plant showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photograph may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Lavandula plant.
The photograph comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Anouk Deluxe 901’ grown in a container.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
Plants used in the aforementioned photograph and following detailed description were grown in 12-cm containers during the early summer in a glass-covered greenhouse in Boskoop, The Netherlands and under cultural practices typical of commercial Lavandula production. Plants were pinched two times and were ten months old when the photograph and description were taken. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 14° C. to 26° C. and night temperatures ranged from 6° C. to 18° C. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2007 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
