Abstract
A distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named `Yolucy`, characterized by its uniformly mounded and relatively tall plant habit; relatively late flowering; decorative-type inflorescences that are about 4.3 cm in diameter; attractive lavender pink ray florets; numerous inflorescences per plant; and excellent garden performance.
Description
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant, botanically known as Dendranthema grandiflora and referred to by the cultivar name Yolucy.
The new cultivar is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Salinas, Calif. The objective of the breeding program is to create new garden-type Chrysanthemum cultivars having inflorescences with desirable inflorescence forms and floret colors and good garden performance.
The new cultivar originated from a cross made by the Inventor in November, 1993, of the Dendranthema grandiflora cultivar Debonair (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,324) as the female, or seed, parent with an unidentified proprietary seedling selection as the male, or pollen, parent.
The cultivar Yolucy was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross in a controlled environment in Salinas, Calif., in January, 1995. The selection of this plant was based on its desirable inflorescence form and ray floret color and excellent garden performance.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal cuttings taken in a controlled environment in Salinas, Calif., has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar Yolucy has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, daylength 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 `Yolucy`. These characteristics in combination distinguish `Yolucy` as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Uniformly mounded and relatively tall plant habit.
2. Relatively late flowering.
3. Decorative-type inflorescences that are about 4.3 cm in diameter.
4. Attractive lavender pink ray florets.
5. Numerous inflorescences per plant.
6. Excellent garden performance.
The new Chrysanthemum is similar to the parent cultivar Debonair. However in side-by-side comparisons under commercial practice, plants of the new Chrysanthemum were more uniform in plant habit and flowered significantly later than plants of the cultivar Debonair.
The accompanying photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new cultivar.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of `Yolucy`.
The phoptograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a close-up view of typical inflorescences of the cultivar `Yolucy`.
These photographs show the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Floret and foliage colors in the photographs may differ from the actual colors due to light reflectance.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The following observations and measurements describe plants grown in Leamington, Ontario, Canada, under conditions which approximate those generally used in commercial garden Chrysanthemum production. One rooted cutting was planted in a 15-cm container on Jul. 20, 1998 and plants were grown outdoors under natural season conditions. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for typical flowering containers.
