Agent: Futura Promotions Pty Ltd, Wellington Point, QLD. Characteristics (Table 12, Figure 31) Plant: dwarf, compact, evergreen shrub with masses of flowers; habit semi-prostrate, abundant leading branches, side branches in abundance, about same size as leading branches, compact and profuse flowering, short but wide (average 11.70cm high, 24.30cm wide), height to width ratio of 0.48 indicating width is twice the height, strong lateral growth due to the tendency for basal branching and secondary branching, flowers heavily on all branches, bigger basal leaves. Stem: heavy main and side branching, internodes very short but variable, young stem light greyish green, mature stem brown. Leaf: blade size variable with long basal leaves and short tip leaves, average basal blade size 25.2mm x 11.6mm, L/B ratio of 2.19, shape ovate to elliptical, emerging and mature leaves green, upper surface (RHS 137A), lower surface (RHS 137B). Flower: heavy flowering, mean number of flowers per 5cm circle 8.8, mean diameter 10.6mm, colour emerges as purple (RHS 78A) and fades through to lighter purple (RHS 78B-78C). (Note: all RHS colour chart number refers to 1995 edition). Origin and Breeding Spontaneous mutation: arose as a sport of ‘Little Lilac’ (also known as ‘Mad Hatter’ in Australia) at applicant’s property in Hawaii in 1996. The sport is dwarf, compact and profuse flowering throughout and not only peripheral flowering when compared with parental variety. It was vegetatively propagated through several generations and found to be stable and distinct from the parent. Selection criteria: dwarf, compact and profuse flowering. Propagation: vegetatively propagated through cuttings. Breeder: Roy Shigenaga, Hilo, Hawaii, USA. Choice of Comparators ‘Mad Hatter’ was chosen as one of the comparators because it is the parental variety and has some similarities with the candidate. ‘Karissa’ was chosen, as it is a similar variety of common knowledge. No other similar varieties of common knowledge have been identified. Comparative Trials Comparators: ‘Mad Hatter’ and ‘Karissa’. Location: Carol’s Propagation, Capalaba, QLD, Oct 1999 – Mar 2000. Conditions: trial conducted out doors, plants propagated from cuttings and potted into 125mm pots with soilless media (peat and bark based), nutrition maintained with controlled release fertilisers, pest and disease management applied as required. Trial design: 10 pots of each variety arranged in a completely randomised design. Measurements: from 10 plants at random, longest basal leaves were measured, plant height was taken from top of pot to tip, fully opened flowers were measured on plants. Shoot tip was taken from tips of side branches to tip of main branches. Prior Applications and Sales No prior applications. First sold in the USA in Oct 1996.

Characteristics (Table 13, Figure 32) Plant: small, bushy, upright, evergreen, perennial shrub with very fine compact yellow foliage, mean height 22.1cm, mean width 32.3cm. Stem: red brown, internodes short. Leaf: small, lanceolate, mean length 27.9mm, mean width 9.8mm, colour of emerging leaves on upper surface yellow green (RHS 144B), lower surface yellow green (RHS 144C), and on mature leaves green (RHS 137B). Flower: large, mean diameter 12.3mm, emerging centre petals purple (RHS 78A), edge of petal red purple (RHS 74A). The overall colour of the flowers appears bright pink, fading only slightly on maturity, very floriferous, distribution of flowers even through out the bush. (Note all RHS colour chart numbers refer to 1995 edition). Origin and Breeding Open pollination followed by seedling selection: seed parent Cuphea ‘Louisa’ A . The seed parent is a selected mutation with variegated leaves and a small compact habit. A number of open-pollinated seedlings of ‘Louisa’ A were planted in planned breeding program at applicant’s nursery at Capalaba, QLD. Selection criteria: from this batch, ‘Lois’ was selected on the basis of compact growth habit, larger flower size and profusion. It also has non-variegated leaves while the parental variety has green leaves with white margins. Propagation: vegetatively through many generations to confirm uniformity and stability. ‘Lois’ will be commercially propagated by cuttings from the stock plants. Breeder: Carolynn Milne, Carol’s Propagation, Capalaba, QLD. Choice of Comparators ‘Golden Ruby’ was selected as the comparator for this trial as it is the most similar variety of common knowledge on the basis of foliage colour. ‘Louisa’ A was also included in the trial because it is the seed parent of the candidate variety. Comparative Trial Comparators: ‘Golden Ruby’ and ‘Louisa’ A . Location: Carol’s Propagation, Capalaba, QLD, Oct 1999 – Mar 2000. Conditions: trial conducted out doors, plants propagated from cuttings and potted into 125mm pots with soilless media (peat and bark based), nutrition maintained with controlled release fertilisers, pest and disease management applied as required. Trial design: 10 pots of each variety arranged in a completely randomised design. Measurements: from 10 plants at random, longest basal leaves were measured, plant height was taken from top of pot to tip, fully opened flowers were measured on plants.
