ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Tibouchina plant, botanically known as
Tibouchina urvilleana
, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name Angyo White.
The new Tibouchina is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Kawaguchi City, Japan. The objective of the breeding program was to create compact Tibouchina cultivars with unique flower colors.
The new Tibouchina originated from a cross made by the Inventor of two unidentified selections of
Tibouchina urvilleana
. The cultivar Angyo White was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross in a controlled environment in Kawaguchi City, Japan. Plants of the new Tibouchina differ from the parent selections primarily in flower color.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal cuttings taken at Irvine, Calif., since 1997 has shown that the unique features of this new Tibouchina are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the cultivar Angyo White have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity, daylength, and fertility level without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Angyo White’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Angyo White’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Upright, somewhat outwardly spreading and open plant habit.
2. Large white flowers.
3. Dark green leaves.
