Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Aloe plant named ‘EC-ALAC-2003’ is disclosed, characterized by leaves with distinctive raised yellow-green oblong ridges and a serrate light red and yellow-green margin. Foliage is attractively tapered and slightly arching. The new variety is an Aloe, typically produced as an indoor or outdoor ornamental plant.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species: Aloe aculeata.
Variety denomination: ‘EC-ALAC-2003’.
The new cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program. The seed parent an unpatented proprietary Aloe aculeata hybrid referred to as ‘12AL-44’. The pollen parent an unpatented proprietary Aloe aculeata hybrid referred to as ‘12AL-47’. The crossing was made during 2013 in Sappemeer, The Netherlands at a commercial greenhouse. ‘EC-ALAC-2003’ was discovered by the inventor in 2014.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘EC-ALAC-2003’ was first performed in Sappemeer, The Netherlands, at a commercial laboratory by tissue culture in September of 2014. ‘EC-ALAC-2003’ has since produced several generations and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type.
The cultivar ‘EC-ALAC-2003’ 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 ‘EC-ALAC-2003.’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘EC-ALAC-2003’ as a new and distinct Aloe cultivar:
- 1. Distinctive raised oblong ridges colored Yellow-Green 193B.
- 2. Serrate light red and yellow-green margin.
- 3. Attractively tapered and slightly arched foliage.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘EC-ALAC-2003’ are similar to the seed parent in most horticultural characteristics. However, plants of the new variety differ from the seed parent in the following:
-
- 1. New cultivar has a light red serrate margin, the seed parent does not have a colored margin.
- 2. The new variety has distinctly raised stripes, the seed parent has stripes which are not raised.
- 3. The new variety has a thicker leaf base than the seed parent.
Plants of the new cultivar ‘EC-ALAC-2003’ are similar to the pollen parent in most horticultural characteristics. However, plants of the new variety differ in the following:
- 1. New cultivar has a light red serrate margin; the pollen parent has a red margin.
- 2. Foliage of the new variety is more acutely tapered.
- 3. The new variety has distinctly raised stripes, the pollen parent has stripes which are not raised.
‘EC-ALAC-2003’ can be compared to the unpatented commercial variety Aloe ‘Spider’. The two Aloe varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, the new variety differs in the following:
- 1. Plants of the new variety have a rosette formation; plants of this comparator form multiple growth points.
- 2. The new variety has distinctly raised stripes, this comparator has stripes which are not raised.
- 3. This comparator does not have the serrate light red margin of the new variety.
‘EC-ALAC-2003’ can also be compared to the commercial variety Aloe ‘EC-ALOE-1801’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 31,336. The two Aloe varieties are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, the new variety differs in the following:
-
- 1. New cultivar has light red marginal serrations, this comparator has darker red and thicker marginal serration.
- 2. The new variety has dark green foliage with many light green stripes, foliage of this comparator is solid green.
The accompanying photograph in FIG. 1 illustrates in full color a typical plant of ‘EC-ALAC-2003’ grown in a greenhouse in Sappemeer, The Netherlands. This plant is approximately 11 months old, shown in a 10.5 cm container.
The photographs were 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, 2015 edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe ‘EC-ALAC-2003’ plants in a commercial greenhouse in Sappemeer, The Netherlands during April. Temperatures ranged from 21° C. to 25° C. during the day, and 18° C. to 21° C. during the night. No artificial light, photoperiodic treatments or chemical treatments were given to the plants. Natural light conditions were approximately 2500 to 3000 fc of light. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical plant types.
