Abstract
A new and distinct Aloe×Gasteria hybrid cultivar named ‘WT01’ is disclosed, characterized by durable foliage, resistant to breakage and a faster growth habit than similar species. The new variety is a Aloe×Gasteria hybrid, typically produced as an ornamental plant.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Aloe×Gasteria hybrid.
Variety denomination: ‘WT01’.
The new cultivar was discovered as a seedling, resulting from the planned crossing of an unnamed Aloe hybrid(unpatented) as the seed parent and an, unnamed, unpatented Gasteria, nitida as the pollen parent ‘WT01’ was discovered by the inventor, Wander Durk Tuinier, a citizen of the Netherlands, in a group of seedlings resulting from the aforementioned crossing. The new variety was discovered September 2007, in a commercial greenhouse in Swellendam, South Africa.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘WT01’ was first performed in South Africa, in Swellendam at a commercial laboratory by tissue culture in January 2008. ‘WT01’ has since produced several generations and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type.
The cultivar ‘WT01’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, day length, and light intensity, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘WT01.’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘WT01’ as a new and distinct Aloe×Gasteria cultivar:
-
- 1. Strong, durable foliage, resistant to rot and breakage.
- 2. Fast, vigorous growth rate.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘WT01’ are similar to plants of the unnamed seed parent variety in most horticultural characteristics. However, plants of the new cultivar ‘WT01’ produce foliage that is more resistant to rot and breakage. Additionally, the new cultivar produces a much less regular rosette type plant shape. The new cultivar has leaves that are close to an opposite rosetting arrangement, as compared to the whorled rosette of the seed parent.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘WT01’ are similar to plant of the unknown Gasteria pollen parent in most horticultural characteristics. However, plants of the new cultivar ‘WT01’ are much faster growing than the pollen parent.
Plants of ‘WT01’ can be compared to the known commercial variety, Aloe aristata(unpatented). Differences are similar to those with the seed parent. ‘WT01’ produces stronger, more durable foliage than Aloe aristata. Additionally, the new cultivar exhibits a more opposite rosette leaf pattern than a tightly held whorled rosette as seen in Aloe aristata.
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘WT01’ indoors in the Netherlands. This plant is approximately 5 months old, shown in a 4 inch pot. The photograph was taken using conventional techniques and although colors may appear different from actual colors due to light reflectance it is as accurate as possible by conventional photographic techniques.
In the following description, color references are made to The R.H.S. Colour Chart, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe ‘WT01’ plants in a commercial greenhouse in Kimpen aan de Ijssel, the Netherlands. Temperatures ranged from 20° C. to 22° C. night and day. No artificial light, photoperiodic treatments or chemical treatments were given to the plants. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical plant types.
