ABSTRACT:

Genus:
Lavandula.
Species:
angustifolia.
Denomination: Lavang 21.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of lavender known botanically as
Lavandula angustifolia
and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Lavang 21’. The new invention ‘Lavang 21’ is a hybrid resulting from the pollination between
Lavandula angustifolia
‘Twickel Purple’ (unpatented) and an unidentified
Lavandula angustifolia
cultivar (unpatented). ‘Lavang 21’ was selected in a cultivated area of Christchurch, New Zealand by the inventor in 1995. The female parent plant is
Lavandula angustifolia
‘Twickel Purple’ and the male parent plant is an unidentified
Lavandula angustifolia
cultivar.
The new lavender ‘Lavang 21’ is distinct and unique due to a bold upright habit, spike colour and striking presence. ‘Lavang 21’ is distinguishable from the parent plants by color of foliage and flower spike, shape and habit. There are no existing close comparison plants known to the inventor. ‘Lavang 21’ is distinguishable from all other lavenders known to the inventor by colour and size of spike, positioning of peduncles, foliage colour, shape of bush and upright habit.
The new invention ‘Lavang 21’ was asexually propagated by the inventor in Christchurch, New Zealand in 1997 using soft to semi-hardwood cuttings. Since that time subsequent generations have been determined fixed, stable and true to type.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and represent the distinguishing characteristics of the new
Lavandula
cultivar ‘Lavang 21’. These traits in combination distinguish ‘Lavang 21’ from all other existing varieties of
Lavandula
known to the inventor. ‘Lavang 21’ has not been tested under all possible conditions and phenotypic differences may be observed with variations in environmental, climatic, and cultural conditions, however, without any variance in genotype.

Lavandula angustifolia
cultivar.
