Abstract
A new and distinct Chlorophytum laxum cultivar named ‘CH8104’ is disclosed, characterized very compact plant habit, with arching foliage. Foliage is colored green with a strong white margin and resists tearing and breakage. The new cultivar is a Chlorophytum laxum suitable as an indoor pot plant.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Chlorophytum laxum.
Variety denomination: ‘CH8104’.
The new cultivar is a chance, whole plant mutation selected by the inventor, Magaly Zais-Fast, a citizen of the United States, in 2002 at a commercial greenhouse located near Apopka, Fla. ‘CH8104’ was found as a single, naturally occurring, whole plant mutation growing in a commercial planting of the parent variety, an unnamed variety of Chlorophytum laxum.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘CH8104’ was first performed by divisions at a non-commercial nursery in Florida during 2002. The inventor kept the plants in a confidential, restricted location, observing plant habit and stability. These plants showed that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type. In August of 2012, ‘CH8104’ was reproduced by micro-propagation.
The cultivar ‘CH8104’ 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 ‘CH8104’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘CH8104’ as a new and distinct Chlorophytum cultivar:
-
- 1. Very compact plant habit.
- 2. Arching foliage habit.
- 3. Suitability as an indoor pot plant.
- 4. Strong foliage resistant to tearing and breakage.
- 5. Strong green coloration of the center of the leaf blade, and thick white margin coloration.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘CH8104’ are similar to plants of the unpatented, unnamed, parent variety, Chlorophytum laxum in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of ‘CH8104’ are much shorter and more compact than the parent variety. Additionally the foliage of ‘CH8104’ has a thicker white margin than the parent variety, and the plants of the parent variety have been observed to flower, whereas the new variety does not flower freely.
‘CH8104’ can be compared to the patented commercial variety Chlorophytum laxum ‘Lemon Lime’, unpatented. Plants of ‘Lemon Lime’ are similar to plants of ‘CH8104’ in most horticultural characteristics, however, plants of ‘CH8104’ is more compact, and do not produce flowers, as plants of ‘Lemon Lime’ have been observed to produce.
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘CH8104’ grown in a greenhouse. This plant is approximately 6 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 Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe ‘CH8104’ plants grown in a climate controlled greenhouse in Apopka, Fla. Temperatures ranged from 18° C. to 22° C. at night to 18° C. to 22° C. during the day. No artificial light, photoperiodic treatments or chemical treatments were given to the plants. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical plant types.
