ABSTRACT:
Botanical classification: Verbena hybrid.
Varietal denomination: ‘Sumverb 02’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Verbena plant known by the varietal name ‘Sumverb 02’. The new variety was discovered in August 2001 in a selected breeding program in Lüdinghausen, Germany designed to produce a new variety of Verbena with a hanging character and great flowers. The new variety was selected from a cross of proprietary unpatented breeding plants Seedling 26 (female parent) and Seedling 47 (male parent). The new variety is a hanging habitus similar to its parents, but has a larger flower size than both parents. The new variety has a hanging character similar to ‘Temari Violet’, but ‘Temari Violet’ (unpatented) has 81A colored flowers and ‘Sumverb 02’ has 87A colored flowers. The new variety was first asexually reproduced in October 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 ‘Sumverb 02’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Flower color.
