Patent data from the USPTO public record. Each expiration date says whether a term adjustment is recorded against the patent, or whether it runs the full statutory term.
This is not legal advice. A patent expiring frees the plant and its cultivar name — cultivar names cannot be trademarked. It does not free any brand name the plant is marketed under; those are trademarks and renew indefinitely.
