ABSTRACT:

BOTANICAL CLASSIFICATION
Plectranus hybrid.
VARIETAL DENOMINATION
‘Sumcol 01’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Plectranthus hybrid known by the varietal name ‘Sumcol 01’.
The new cultivar was discovered in a planned breeding program in Lüdinghausen Germany in July 2000 and is from a controlled cross of an unnamed, unpatented female
Plectranthus canina
plant with an unnamed, unpatented male
Plectranthus esculentus
plant. The purpose of the breeding program was to produce a Plectranthus plant with compact growth habit.
The following traits compare the new cultivar from other cultivated plants of this type known to the inventor. The characteristics are described with comparative reference to the cultivar's female and male parents.
1. The female parent grows stronger than ‘Sumcol 01’ and is in hanging form.
2. ‘Sumcol 01’ has a stronger fragrance than the female and male parents.
3. ‘Sumcol 01’ has better leaf color than the female parent.
4. ‘Sumcol 01’ is more compact than the female and male parents.
5. ‘Sumcol 01’ has similar leaves to the male parent.
6. The male parent is in the hanging form.
The first asexual reproduction took place at Lüdinghausen, Germany in January 2001 by cuttings. Continued observations from the vegetative cuttings have confirmed that the distinguishing features of the new cultivar remain stable and are retained through successive propagations.
