Description

DISCOVERY
This invention relates to a new and distinct selection of Nerium oleander, a member of the Apocynaceae or dogbane family. Nerium oleander cv. Monvis resulted as a seedling of my hybridizing work which was grown on at 936 South Siet Street, Anaheim, Calif. in May of 1976. The plant to date is known to exist only within the boundaries of the above address and Monrovia Nursery, 18331 E. Foothill Boulevard, Azusa, Calif. and has not been offered for sale or described in any publication.
REPRODUCTION
My new selection has been strictly asexually reproduced by cuttings at Monrovia Nursery Company. The distinct phenotypic characteristics of this selection that set this plant apart from other oleander plants could be lost genetically through sexual reproduction. Therefore, propagation is restricted to asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction is prohibited.
