Petunia×atkinsiana.
Varietal denomination: ‘Sumpet 03’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Petunia plant known by the varietal name ‘Sumpet 03’. The new variety was discovered in April 2001 in a selected breeding program in Lüdinghausen, Germany designed to produce a new variety of Petunia with a harmonious habit and a new flower color. The new variety was selected from a cross of proprietary unpatented breeding plants Seedling 109 (female parent) and Seedling 97 (male parent). The new variety is a hanging plant as is similar to its parents but differs in flower color than both parents. The new variety was first asexually reproduced in June 2001 by cuttings in Lüdinghausen, Germany. The new variety has been trial and field tested at Lüdinghausen and has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics and remain true to type through successive propagations.
The following trait distinguishes ‘Sumpet 03’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
