Abstract

A new plant variety of chrysanthemum producing reddish-purple daisy-type flowers with many ray florets and a small yellow disc.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is directed to a new and distinct variety of chrysanthemum botanically classified as Dendranthema morifolium. The varietal denomination of the new chrysanthemum is ‘Temptress’.
The female parent of the new variety is an undistributed seedling identified as 96-351-056 and the male parent is an undistributed seedling identified as 94-11-099. The new variety has been asexually reproduced by vegetative cuttings in Ventura County, Calif. and the distinguishing characteristics are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
‘Temptress’ is a chrysanthemum plant variety with reddish-purple daisy-type flowers with many ray florets and a small yellow disc.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATION
The accompanying photographs shows typical specimens of the plant and flowers of the new variety with colors being as nearly true as possible with an illustration of this type.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PLANT
The following description of the new variety is of specimens grown in a greenhouse in Ventura County, Calif. in the month of April. ‘Temptress’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary with variations in the environment such as temperature, light intensity, day length and cultural conditions. The color designations herein are from The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart except where general terms are used.
To produce a commercial product the plants may be pinched once about ten days after planting. It has been observed that the shelf life of ‘Temptress’ is about 29 days and a response time of about 6.5 weeks. As recognized in the trade, the term “shelf life” refers to the length of time before blooms become completely dry on the plant. No treatment with growth retardant was used with plants described. Useful growing conditions include night temperatures of about 62°-65° F., day temperatures of about 70°-75° F. The new variety is naturally blooming about September 10 in Ventura County, Calif.
