Controlled pollination: seed parent ‘BW20’ x pollen parent ‘E21’. The seed parent is<br />

characterised by a short plant height and medium leaf size. The pollen parent is<br />

characterised by a violet blue flower colour and small leaf size. ‘Sunseneribuba’ was<br />

selected due to its compact, upright plant growth habit, small leaf size, flower colour,<br />

abundant flower count, combined with long flowering season and low fertility.<br />

Propagation: vegetative cuttings and micropropagation were found to be uniform and<br />

stable. Breeder: Kiyoshi Miyazaki, Shiga, Japan.<br />
