Abstract

A distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Yoseattle’, characterized by its upright and uniformly mounded plant habit; vigorous growth habit; uniform flowering response; early flowering, eight-week response time; floriferousness; daisy-type inflorescences that are about 7.5 cm in diameter; intense red-colored ray florets that do not fade; green disc florets develop slowly maintaining green coloration; and good postproduction longevity with inflorescences maintaining good substance and color for about three weeks in an interior environment.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
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 Yoseattle.
The new Chrysanthemum is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventors in Salinas, Calif. and Fort Myers, Fla. The objective of the breeding program is to create new potted Chrysanthemum cultivars with desirable inflorescence form and floret colors and good postproduction longevity.
The new Chrysanthemum originated from a cross made by the Inventors in May, 1993, in Salinas, Calif., of a proprietary Chrysanthemum seedling selection identified as YB-4196 as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary Chrysanthemum seedling selection identified as YB-6496, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Chrysanthemum was discovered and selected by the Inventors in December, 1996, as a single flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross grown in a controlled environment in Fort Myers, Fla. The selection of this plant was based on its desirable inflorescence form and floret colors and good postproduction longevity.
Asexual reproduction of the new Chrysanthemum by vegetative tip cuttings was first conducted in Fort Myers, Fla. in February, 1997. Asexual reproduction by cuttings has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar Yoseattle 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 ‘Yoseattle’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Yoseattle’ as a new and distinct Chrysanthemum:
1. Upright and uniformly mounded plant habit.
2. Vigorous growth habit.
3. Uniform flowering response.
4. Early flowering, eight-week response time.
5. Freely flowering.
6. Daisy-type inflorescences that are about 7.5 cm in diameter.
8. Intense red-colored ray florets that do not fade. Green disc florets develop slowly maintaining green coloration.
9. Can be grown as a natural spray-type.
10. Good postproduction longevity with inflorescences maintaining good substance and color for about three weeks in an interior environment.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ from plants of the Chrysanthemum cultivar, Rage, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,770, in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum are more outwardly spreading than plants of the cultivar Rage.
2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum have larger inflorescences than plants of the cultivar Rage.
3. Disc floret color of the new Chrysanthemum maintains green coloration longer than disc florets of the cultivar Rage.
4. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum flower about two or three days earlier than plants of the cultivar Rage.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Chrysanthemum showing the colors as true as it is reasonably posible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photographs may differ from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which more accurately describe the actual colors of the new Chrysanthemum.
The photograph at the top of the sheet comprises a top perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Yoseattle’.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a close-up view of typical inflorescences of the cultivar Yoseattle.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
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 and flowered during the Spring 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 spray-types. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical flowering plants.
Botanical classification: Dendranthema grandiflora cultivar Yoseattle.
Commercial classification: Daisy-type potted Chrysanthemum.

Propagation:
Type.—Terminal tip cuttings.
Time to rooting.—Seven to ten days with soil temperatures of 21° C.
Rooting habit.—Fine, fibrous and well-branched.
Plant description:
Appearance.—Herbaceous daisy-type potted Chrysanthemum which can be grown as a natural spray-type. Inverted triangle; stems mostly upright and somewhat outwardly spreading giving a uniformly mounded appearance to the plant. Freely branching, about four lateral branches develop after removal of terminal apex (pinching); dense and full plants. Vigorous.
Plant height.—About 30 cm.
Plant width.—About 35 cm.
Lateral branches.—Length: About 22 cm. Diameter: About 3 mm. Internode length: About 1.8 cm. Strength: Moderately strong, flexible. Texture: Pubescent. Color: 144A.
Foliage description.—Arrangement: Alternate. Length: About 4.6 cm. Width: About 4.2 cm. Apex: Mucronate. Base: Mostly truncate. Margin: Palmately lobed, sinuses between lateral lobes mostly convergent, occasionally overlapping. Texture: Upper and lower surfaces with very fine pubescence; veins prominent on lower surface.

At other times of the year, inflorescence initiation and development can be induced under short day/long night conditions (at least 13.5 hours of darkness).
