The International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants (ICNCP) regulates the naming of cultivars, cultivar Groups and graft-chimaeras. Examples are
Clematis alpina 'Ruby' a cultivar within a species
Magnolia 'Elizabeth' a hybrid between at least two species
Rhododendron boothii Mishmiense Group: a Group name
+Crataegomespilus a graft-chimaera of Crataegus and Mespilus.
Note that the ICNCP does not regulate trademarks for plants: trademarks are regulated by the law of the land involved. Nor does the ICNCP regulate the naming of plant varieties.
Orchids have a Code of their own that operates within the limits set by the ICNCP.
