A cultivar name is the name that sticks with the plant through all of eternity until the earth is swallowed up by a black hole. Hence, names such as "Guido", "Pink Blush", "Blue Glow", etc., if properly published, are the names those plants will be known by long after the originator is gone and buried. Any other name used as a trademark name is ephemeral and will disappear when the company goes belly up.
