Abstract
A new cultivar of Weigela florida, ‘TVP2’, characterized by its a very compact plant habit, its freely-branching habit, its foliage that is vibrant green in color, its fine foliage, its floriferous, remontant blooming habit and its flowers that are deep pink in color.
Description
Botanical classification: Weigela florida.
Variety denomination: ‘TVP2’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Weigela and will be referred to hereafter by its cultivar name, ‘TVP2’. ‘TVP2’ represents a new cultivar of Weigela, a deciduous shrub grown for landscape use.
The new cultivar originated as a seedling in a trial field that was planted with seeds collected numerous open pollinated named and unnamed Weigela plants in Hazerswoude-Dorp, The Netherlands. ‘TVP2’ was selected as a single unique plant in July of 2016.
Asexual propagation of the new cultivar was first accomplished by softwood stem cuttings by the Inventor in July of 2016 in Hazerswoude-Dorp, The Netherlands. Asexual propagation by softwood stem cuttings has determined that the characteristics of the new cultivar are stable and are reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the characteristics of the new cultivar. These attributes in combination distinguish ‘TVP2’ as a unique cultivar of Weigela.
- 1. ‘TVP2’ exhibits a very compact plant habit.
- 2. ‘TVP2’ exhibits a freely branching habit.
- 3. ‘TVP2’ exhibits foliage that is vibrant green in color.
- 4. ‘TVP2’ exhibits fine foliage.
- 5. ‘TVP2’ exhibits floriferous, remontant blooming habit.
- 6. ‘TVP2’ exhibits flowers that are deep pink in color.
‘TVP2’ can be compared to the Weigela florida varieties ‘Plangen’ (not patented) ‘Slingpink’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 29,149). Both ‘Plangen’ and ‘Slingpink’ are similar to ‘TVP2’ in having foliage that is green in color and flowers that are pink in color. ‘Plangen’ differs from ‘TVP2’ in having a less compact plant habit, flowers that are lighter pink in color, foliage that is less fine and in being less freely branched. ‘Slingpink’ differs from ‘TVP2’ in having a less compact plant habit, flowers that are white and light pink in color, foliage that is less fine, and in being less freely branched.
The accompanying colored photographs were taken in August and illustrates the overall appearance and distinct characteristics of 14 month-old plants the new Weigela as grown outdoors in a field Hazerswoude-Dorp, The Netherlands.
The photograph in FIG. 1 provides an overall view of the growth habit of ‘TVP2’.
The photograph in FIG. 2 provides a close-up view of the flowers of ‘TVP2’.
The photograph in FIG. 3 provides a close-up view of the foliage of ‘TVP2’.
The 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 Weigela.
The following is a detailed description of 14 month-old plants of the new cultivar as grown outdoors in a field in Hazerswoude-Dorp, The Netherlands. Phenotypic differences may be observed with variations in environmental, climatic, and cultural conditions. The color determination is in accordance with The 2015 R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society, London, England, except where general color terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
