Abstract
‘ESAL 1801’ is a distinctive cultivar of Alocasia plant which is characterized by the combination of large dark green foliage with green venation, slightly to moderately bullate foliage with raised veins, a lamina which is held upright to horizontal relative to the petiole, and the stability of all characteristics from generation to generation.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: The Latin name of the genus and species of the novel variety disclosed herein is Alocasia zebrina.
Variety denomination: The inventive variety of Alocasia disclosed herein has been given the variety denomination ‘ESAL1801’.
This application claims priority to the Community Plant Variety Rights application number 2018/2547, filed Oct. 9, 2018 which is herein incorporated by reference.
Parentage: ‘ESAL1801’ originated as a naturally occurring, whole-plant mutation of an unnamed Alocasia zebrina plant (not patented). In the summer of 2017, the inventor discovered the mutation at his commercial greenhouse in Gavenzande, The Netherlands, growing amongst a cultivated population of unnamed Alocasia zebrina plants. The mutation was noted for its large foliage and near-black leaf petiole and was subsequently isolated for further evaluation in order to confirm the distinctness and stability of the characteristics first observed. Upon confirmation of distinctness and stability, ‘ESFIBE1801’ was selected for commercialization.
Asexual Reproduction: Asexual reproduction of ‘ESFIBE1801’, by way of vegetative cuttings, was first initiated in the summer of 2017 at a commercial greenhouse in Gavenzande, The Netherlands. Through five subsequent generations, the unique features of this cultivar have proven to be stable and true to type.
The cultivar ‘ESAL1801’ 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 ‘ESAL1801’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘ESAL1801’ as a new and distinct Alocasia cultivar:
-
- 1. Alocasia ‘ESAL1801’ exhibits large, broadly sagitate foliage with an apiculate apex; and
- 2. Alocasia ‘ESAL1801’ exhibits dark green foliage with prominent raise veins that are also colored green; and
- 3. Alocasia ‘ESAL1801’ exhibits slightly to moderately bullate foliage with raised, prominent veins; and
- 4. Alocasia ‘ESAL1801’ exhibits a lamina which is held upright to horizontal, relative to the petiole.
The following observations and measurements made in September of 2018 describe averages from two 26 week-old ‘ESAL1801’ plants grown in a 28 cm nursery container at a greenhouse in Gavenzande, the Netherlands. Plants were produced in a greenhouse with 50 percent shade covering, ebb and flood irrigation tables, no supplemental fertilizer, and no preventative or pest control measures utilized.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate that certain characteristics will vary with older or, conversely, with younger plants. ‘ESAL1801’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. Where dimensions, sizes, colors and other characteristics are given, it is to be understood that such characteristics are approximations or averages set forth as accurately as practicable. The phenotype of the variety may differ from the descriptions set forth herein with variations in environmental, climatic and cultural conditions. Color notations are based on The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, The Royal Horticultural Society, London, 2015 (sixth edition).
A botanical description of ‘ESAL1801’ and a comparison with the parent plant and most similar commercial comparator are provided below.
