A new and distinct cultivar of Gasteraloe plant named ‘D OVERFLOW’ is disclosed, characterized by an upright and uniform rosette shape. Foliage is uniquely dark green and densely covered with greyed-green lenticel dots. The new variety is an Gasteraloe, typically produced as an ornamental plant.

Latin name of the genus and species: Gasteraloe hybrida.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The new cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program by the inventor, to produce distinct and better performing varieties. The seed parent is the inventor's own hybrid Gasteria carinata #15005-3, unpatented. The pollen parent is the inventor's own hybrid, Aristaloe aristata #2001, unpatented. The crossing resulting in the new cultivar was made in 2019 at a nursery in Amposta, Spain. ‘D OVERFLOW’ was found and selected by the inventor in March 2021 at the same location in Amposta, Spain.

Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar ‘D OVERFLOW’ was first performed in Amposta, Spain in March 2021, by vegetative cuttings. ‘D OVERFLOW’ has since produced four generations and has shown that the unique features of this cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘D OVERFLOW’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘D OVERFLOW’ as a new and distinct Gasteraloe cultivar:

PARENTAL COMPARISONS

Plants of the new cultivar ‘D OVERFLOW’ are similar to the seed parent in most horticultural characteristics. However, plants of the new cultivar differ in the following:

Plants of the new cultivar ‘D OVERFLOW’ are similar to the pollen parent in most horticultural characteristics. However, plants of the new cultivar differ in the following:

COMMERCIAL COMPARISONS

‘D OVERFLOW’ can be compared to the commercial cultivar Gasteraloe ‘D Delta’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 30,905. The two cultivars are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, the new cultivar differs in the following:

‘D OVERFLOW’ can be compared to the unpatented commercial cultivar Gasteraloe ‘WT01’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 22,012. The two cultivars are similar in most horticultural characteristics; however, the new cultivar differs in the following:

DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION

In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Color Chart, 2015 edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe ‘D OVERFLOW’ plants in a glass greenhouse in Amposta, Spain. Temperatures ranged from 18° C. to 20° C. during the day, and 15° C. to 18° C. during the night. No artificial light, photoperiodic treatments or chemical treatments were given to the plants. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical plant types.
