Abstract
A new and distinct Sansevieria cultivar named ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’ is disclosed, characterized by uniquely pliable foliage and plants that produce many leaves and sucker abundantly. Foliage is dark green with lighter greyed-green striations. The new variety is a Sansevieria, typically produced as an indoor ornamental plant.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Sansevieria trifasciata.
Variety denomination: ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’.
This application relates to a new cultivar of Sunsevieria trifasciata. The new variety is the product of chance discovery. The inventor discovered the new variety as a whole plant, naturally occurring mutation from the parent plant Sansevieria trifasciata ‘Zeylanica’.
The new variety was first observed by the inventor, in 2012 in a planting of the parent plants, at a commercial nursery in Costa Rica. After identifying the new variety as a potentially interesting selection, the inventor continued confidential testing and propagation of ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’, assessing stability of the unique characteristics of this variety.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’ was first performed at a commercial nursery in Costa Rica by leaf cuttings of original plant in 2012. Through subsequent propagation, approximately 5 generations have been reproduced, which have shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type.
The cultivar ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’ 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 ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY.’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’ as a new and distinct Sansevieria cultivar:
-
- 1. Foliage of the new variety is uniquely flexible. Foliage bends easily and resists breakage.
- 2. Foliage is very dark Green, with light and dark greyed-green horizontal striations.
- 3. Plants produce more leaves per plant on average and suckers abundantly.
- 4. Acute leaf.
- 5. Large leaf Sanseviera variety.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’ are similar to the parent variety, in many horticultural characteristics. However the new variety, ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’ differs from parent in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. The parent variety does not have pliable leaves resistant to breakage, as found in the new variety.
- 2. Foliage of the new variety is narrower in width.
- 3. The new variety has less light colored striations.
- 4. Plants of the new variety produce more leaves per plant than the parent variety.
- 5. Foliage of the new variety is more acute than that of the parent variety.
There is no similar variety but ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’ can be compared with the unpatented commercial variety Sanservieria. ‘Black Coral’, unpatented. However the new variety, ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’ differs from ‘Black Coral’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Foliage of the new variety is more pliable and resistant to breakage then foliage of the comparator.
- 2. Foliage of the new variety is darker green, with less light colored striations.
- 3. Foliage of the new variety has a more acute shape than that of the comparator.
- 4. Plants of the new variety produce more leaves per plant than ‘Black Coral’.
- 5. Plants of the new variety are shorter than plants of ‘Black Coral’.
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’ grown in a commercial greenhouse in Costa Rica. The plant was grown in the ground.
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 2007, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe ‘BLACK PRINCESS SANDY’ plant is grown in Florida. The plant is approximately 5 months old in a 6 inch pot. Temperatures ranged between 22° C. to 40° C. during the day and 15° C. to 30° C. at night. No chemical treatments were given to the plants. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical plant types.
