The new plant of the present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of chrysanthemum plant that was discovered and selected as one flowering plant within the progeny of a cross of a female parent chrysanthemum cultivar named `Recette` (not patentd) and a male parent chrysanthemum named `Rex` (not patented) by Rob Noodelijk in May, 1992.
The first act of asexual reproduction of Refocus was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were taken from the initial selection in August, 1992 in a controlled environment in Ter Aar, Holland.
The present invention is a new and distinct variety of chrysanthemum bearing small sized blooms with purple ray florets and green-yellow disc florets.
The present invention of a new and distinct variety of chrysanthemum is shown in the accompanying drawings, the color being as nearly true as possible with color photographs of this type.
FIG. 1 shows the stem of the cultivar in full bloom.
FIG. 2 shows the various stages of bloom and foliage of the new cultivar.
This new variety of chrysanthemum is of the botanical classification Dendranthema grandiflora. When grown in the vicinity of Ter Aar, Holland, it has a response time of approximately 8 weeks. This new variety produces small sized blooms with purple ray florets and green-yellow disc florets having a 3 week performance (i.e., vase life of 21 days). This new variety of chrysanthemum has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics throughout successive propagations. However, the phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment such as light intensity and temperature. To show the phenotype as described Refocus and be planted year round under greenhouse conditions in Holland.
The following is a description of the plant and characteristics that distinguish Refocus as a new and distinct variety.
The color designations (color designations are from the R.H.S. Colour Chart) are taken from the plant itself. Accordingly, any discrepancies between the color designations and the colors depicted in the photographs are due to photographic tolerances.
