Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Lavandula plant named ‘Anouk Deluxe 108’, characterized by its compact and upright plant habit; freely branching growth habit; freely flowering habit; dark violet-colored flowers and purple violet-colored terminal flower bracts positioned on strong and erect peduncles; long flowering period; and good postproduction and garden performance.

Description

Botanical designation: Lavandula stoechas.
Cultivar denomination: ‘ANOUK DELUXE 108’.
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 108’.
The new Lavandula plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Nuis, The Netherlands and Boskoop, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program was to develop new unique Lavandula plants with good performance and attractive plant form and flower coloration.
The new Lavandula plant originated from an open-pollination in May, 2013 of Lavandula stoechas ‘Anouk’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,685, as the female, or seed, parent with an unknown proprietary selection of Lavandula stoechas as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Lavandula plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated open-pollination in a controlled environment in Nuis, The Netherlands in May, 2014.
Asexual reproduction of the new Lavandula plant by terminal cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Boskoop, The Netherlands since August, 2014 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 108’ as a new and distinct Lavandula plant:
    • 1. Compact and upright plant habit.
    • 2. Freely branching growth habit.
    • 3. Freely flowering habit.
    • 4. Dark violet-colored flowers and purple violet-colored terminal flower bracts positioned on strong and erect peduncles.
    • 5. Long flowering period.
    • 6. Good postproduction and garden performance.
Plants of the new Lavandula differ primarily from plants of the female parent, ‘Anouk’, in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Lavandula are more compact and denser than plants of ‘Anouk’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Lavandula have a stronger reflowering habit than plants of ‘Anouk’.
    • 3. Plants of the new Lavandula have dark violet-colored flowers and purple violet-colored terminal flower bracts whereas plants of ‘Anouk’ have purple violet-colored flowers and violet-colored terminal flower bracts.
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 primarily from plants of ‘Silver Anouk’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Lavandula are more compact and denser than plants of ‘Silver Anouk’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Lavandula have a stronger re-flowering habit than plants of ‘Silver Anouk’.
    • 3. Plants of the new Lavandula have dark violet-colored flowers and purple violet-colored terminal flower bracts whereas plants of ‘Silver Anouk’ have dark violet-colored flowers and purple-colored terminal flower bracts.
Plants of the new Lavandula can be compared to plants of the Lavandula stoechas ‘Toscane’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 18,046. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Lavandula differ primarily from plants of ‘Toscane’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Lavandula are more compact and denser than plants of ‘Toscane’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Lavandula have a stronger re-flowering habit than plants of ‘Toscane’.
    • 3. Plants of the new Lavandula have dark violet-colored flowers and purple violet-colored terminal flower bracts whereas plants of ‘Toscane’ have purple-colored flowers and light violet-colored terminal flower bracts.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photographs illustrate 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 photographs 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 on the first sheet is a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Anouk Deluxe 108’ grown in a container.
The photograph on the second sheet is a close-up view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Anouk Deluxe 108’.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
Plants used in the aforementioned photographs and following detailed description were grown in 12-cm containers during the spring and early summer in an outdoor nursery in Boskoop, The Netherlands and under cultural practices typical of commercial Lavandula production. Plants were pinched one time and were ten months old when the photographs and description were taken. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 10° C. to 30° C. and night temperatures ranged from 5° C. to 20° C.
