Abstract
A distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Yobillings’, characterized by its mostly upright and uniformly mounded plant habit; freely branching habit, very full and dense plants; uniform and early flowering; vigorous and strong plant growth; numerous and very large daisy inflorescences that are about 13.2 cm in diameter when grown as a disbud; white-colored ray florets; slow maturing green-colored disc florets; and good postproduction longevity with inflorescences and leaves maintaining good substance and color for about three weeks in an interior environment.
Description
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant, botanically known as Dendranthema grandiflora and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name Yobillings.
The new Chrysanthemum is a product of a planted breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Salinas, Calif. The objective of the breeding program is to create new pot-type Chrysanthemum cultivars having desirable inflorescence forms and floret colors and good post-production longevity.
The new Chrysanthemum originated from a cross made by the Inventor in January, 1991, in Salinas, Calif., of a proprietary Chrysanthemum seedling selection identified as code number YB-4684 as the male, or pollen, parent, with a proprietary Chrysanthemum seedling selection identified as code number YB-5163 as the female, or seed, parent.
The new Chrysanthemum 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 November, 1992. The selection of this plant was based on its desirable inflorescence form and floret colors and good post-production longevity.
Asexual reproduction of the new Chrysanthemum by terminal cuttings harvested 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 Yobillings 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 ‘Yobillings’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Yobillings’ as a new and distinct Chrysanthemum:
1. Mostly upright and uniformly mounded plant habit.
2. Freely branching habit, very full and dense plants.
3. Uniform and early flowering.
4. Vigorous and strong plant growth.
5. Numerous and very large daisy inflorescences that are about 13.2 cm in diameter when grown as a disbud.
6. White-colored ray florets.
7. Slow maturing green-colored disc florets.
8. Good postproduction longevity with inflorescenes and leaves maintaining good substance and color for about three weeks in an interior environment.
The new Chrysanthemum can be compared to the Chrysanthemum cultivar White Blush, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,441. However in side-by-side comparisons in Salinas, Calif., and Leamington, Ontario, Canada, under commercial practice, plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ from plants of the cultivar White Blush in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum are taller, much more vigorous and stronger than plants of the cultivar White Blush.
2. Leaves of the new Chrysanthemum are less likely to fleck than leaves of the cultivar White Blush.
3. Inflorescences of the new Chrysanthemum are slightly larger, fuller and have more ray florets than inflorescences of the cultivar White Blush.
4. Ray florets of the new Chrysanthemum are more white in color, more upright, appear fresher and have better substance than ray florets of the cultivar White Blush.
5. Disc florets of the new Chrysanthemum are slower to mature and maintain their green color longer than disc florets of the cultivar White Blush.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Chrysanthemum showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type.
The photograph at the top of the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Yobillings’.
The photograph at the bottom of the first sheet comprises a close-up view of a typical inflorescence and upper (left) and lower (right) surfaces of typical leaves of the cultivar Yobillings.
The photograph at the top of the second sheet comprises a side perspective view of typical flowering plants of ‘Yobillings’ (left) and ‘White Blush’ (right).
The photograph at the bottom of the second sheet comprises a close-up view of upper surfaces of typical inflorescences of plants of ‘Yobillings’ (left) and ‘White Blush’ (right). Floret and foliage colors in the photographs may appear different 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 Salinas, Calif., and Leamington, Ontario, Canada, under greenhouse conditions which approximate those generally used in commercial potted Chrysanthemum production. Four unrooted cuttings were directly stuck in a 15-cm container and pinched once. Plants used for this description were grown as disbud-types. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical flowering plants.
