Abstract

A new and distinct Aglaonema cultivar named ‘KKAG201303’ is disclosed, characterized by green and yellow-green foliage, decorative green white to white veins, narrow linear leaves and a compact plant shape. The new variety is an Aglaonema, typically produced as an indoor ornamental plant.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: Aglaonema commutatum.
Variety denomination: ‘KKAG201303’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This application relates to a new cultivar of Aglaonema commutatum. The new variety is the product of a planned breeding program. The new variety originated as a seedling from the crossing of the unpatented, proprietary seed parent Aglaonema commutatum ‘BK711’ with the unpatented, proprietary pollen parent referred to as Aglaonema commutatum ‘A848’. The crossing was made by the inventor in a commercial nursery during January of 2005.
The new variety was first selected by the inventor, Kanchana Khemakongkanond, a citizen of Thailand, in March of 2006, at the same nursery in Bangkok, Thailand. After identifying the new variety as a potentially interesting selection, the inventor continued confidential testing and propagation of ‘KKAG201303’, assessing stability of the unique characteristics of this variety.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘KKAG201303’ by vegetative cuttings was first performed at the same nursery in Bangkok, Thailand during February of 2007. Subsequently at least three generations have been produced from vegetative cuttings, and have shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘KKAG201303’ 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 ‘KKAG201303’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘KKAG201303’ as a new and distinct Aglaonema cultivar:
    • 1. Compact plant shape.
    • 2. Green leaf color with yellow-green margins.
    • 3. Unusual narrow, linear leaves.
    • 4. Decorative green-white to white vein coloration.
PARENT COMPARISON
Plants of the new cultivar ‘KKAG201303’ are similar to the seed parent, Aglaonema ‘BK711’ in most horticultural characteristics. The new variety, however, produces narrower, shorter leaves with more creamy coloration pattern than those of the seed parent. Additionally the new variety produces a plant of more compact form than the seed parent.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘KKAG201303’ are similar to the pollen parent, Aglaonema ‘A848’ in most horticultural characteristics. Plants of the new variety, however, produce leaves that are narrower, shorter and show the leaf coloration pattern more clearly than the pollen parent. Additionally the new variety also produces bushier plant growth than the pollen parent.
COMMERCIAL COMPARISON
Plants of the new cultivar ‘KKAG201303’ are comparable to the unpatented unnamed, Aglaonema stenophyllum. The two Aglaonema varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, the new variety ‘KKAG201303’ produces leaves which are green with creamy white variegation and creamy white petioles. Aglaonema stenophyllum produces leaves which are green with yellow variegation and green petioles.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘KKAG201303’ are comparable to the unpatented variety Aglaonema ‘Christmas Day’. The two Aglaonema varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, the new variety ‘KKAG201303’ produces leaves of different shape than those of the comparator ‘Christmas Day’. The leaves of the new variety also have a different overall coloration than ‘Christmas Day’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘KKAG201303’ grown in a controlled greenhouse in Honselersdijk, The Netherlands. This plant is approximately 8 months old shown planted in 12 cm container. 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.
