Default
It is genetic in nature.

A "cultivated variety" or cultivar, is simply a plant selected because of certain displayed traits. Two cultivars of the same plant simply exhibit different traits.

Generally, a cultivar cannot be replicated sexually - the offspring of a "selfing" would display a wide range of traits - which is why you see them cloned.

Changing the cultivar epithet is unethical.
