Just in case this has not become complicated enough, I would make the 
following grammatical argument. The name under which the cultivar is 
registered is the true fancy name and should follow the accepted rules of 
nomenclature, i.e., italics  followed by single quotes for the cultivar name 
which would be in normal font. But since the commercial name is a pseudonym, 
not its "real" name, it should be double quotes.
