Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Aloe plant named ‘Tiki Tahi’, characterized by its compact and upright plant habit; leaves arranged in a dense basal rosette; green-colored leaves with white-colored spots and margins; upright flowering stems; and good postproduction longevity.
Description
Botanical designation: Aloe variegata.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Tiki Tahi’.
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Aloe plant, botanically known as Aloe variegata and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Tiki Tahi’.
The new Aloe plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventors in Monster, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program is to develop new stemless Aloe plants with attractive leaves.
The new Aloe plant originated from a cross-pollination in May, 1996 of an unnamed proprietary selection of Aloe variegata, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Aloe variegata identified as code number AA21, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Aloe plant was discovered and selected by the Inventors as a single flowering plant from within the resultant progeny of the cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in Monster, The Netherlands in October, 1998.
Asexual reproduction of the new Aloe plant by cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Monster, The Netherlands since May, 1999 has shown that the unique features of this new Aloe plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the new Aloe have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions and cultural practices. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environmental conditions such as temperature 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 ‘Tiki Tahi’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Tiki Tahi’ as a new and distinct Aloe plant:
-
- 1. Compact and upright plant habit.
- 2. Leaves arranged in a dense basal rosette.
- 3. Green-colored leaves with white-colored spots and margins.
- 4. Upright flowering stems.
- 5. Good postproduction longevity.
Plants of the new Aloe differ primarily from plants of the female parent selection primarily in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Aloe are more compact than plants of the female parent selection.
- 2. Rosette of leaves of plants of the new Aloe is denser than rosette of leaves of plants of the female parent selection.
- 3. Leaf spots of plants of the new Aloe are circular in shape whereas leaf spots of plants of the female parent selection are oval in shape.
Plants of the new Aloe differ primarily from plants of the male parent selection primarily in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Leaves of plants of the new Aloe are shinier than leaves of plants of the male parent selection.
- 2. Leaf margins of plants of the new Aloe are almost entire whereas leaf margins of plants of the male parent selection are serrate.
- 3. Leaves of plants of the new Aloe have more distinct spots than leaves of plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Aloe can be compared to plants of Aloe ‘Cosmo’, not patented. Plants of the new Aloe differ from plants of ‘Cosmo’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Leaves of plants of the new Aloe are longer and narrower than leaves of plants of ‘Cosmo’.
- 2. Leaves of plants of the new Aloe have more distinct spots than leaves of plants of ‘Cosmo’.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Aloe plant showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Aloe plant.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Tiki Tahi’ grown in a container.
The photograph on the second sheet comprises a top perspective view of the leaves of a typical plant of ‘Tiki Tahi’.
The photograph on the third sheet is a close-up view of a typical inflorescence of ‘Tiki Tahi’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants that were grown during the autumn in 9-cm containers in a glass-covered greenhouse in Monster, The Netherlands and under cultural conditions typically used in Aloe production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 17° C. to 21° C. and night temperatures ranged from 15° C. to 19° C. Plants were seven months old when the photographs and description were taken. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2007 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
