'Diamond Bay'
Aglaonema Cultivar

 ‘Diamond Bay’ was discovered among a population of tissue-cultured plants.  Mature leaves of this Aglaonema variety are lanceolate, 10 to 11 cm wide and 28 to 30 cm long.  Leaves of this cultivar exhibit a central grey-green area that extends out from each side of the midrib to cover slightly over half of the total leaf surface.  Leaf margins are green and meet the lighter grey-green colored central area along irregular borders.  Experimental tests revealed that plants of ‘Diamond Bay’ reached marketable size within 9 months.  Plants were well-branched, averaging 3 basal shoots per plant.  ‘Diamond Bay’ is intended for commercial producers growing finished plants in 1.6 or 3.9 L containers.

'Emerald Bay' - (US Patent No. PP12,867)
Aglaonema Cultivar



 
Mature ‘Emerald Bay’ leaves are lanceolate, 10 to 11 cm wide and 30 to 33 cm long.  The leaf margin is entire and the lamina on either side of the midrib tends to be of slightly unequal widths, resulting in a slight curving of the blade towards the narrower side.  The leaves display a central grey-green area that extends out from each side of the midrib to cover slightly over half of the total leaf surface.  Leaf margins are green and intersect the lighter grey-green colored central area along irregular borders that often overlap to create small distinct patches of a third color that is a darker grey-green.

Experimental tests revealed that plants of ‘Emerald Bay’ reached marketable size within 9 months.  Plants were moderately-branched, averaging 2 to 3 basal shoots per plant.  Plant quality averaged from good to excellent at all nutritional levels.
