Abstract
A distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Coral Pilar’, characterized by its anemone-type inflorescences that are about 6.7 cm in diameter and with large anemone centers; attractive dark coral pink ray florets and yellow-tipped disc florets; freely and early flowering habit; dark green foliage; thick and strong stems; and good postproduction longevity with inflorescences maintaining good substance and color for about three or four weeks in an interior environment.
Description
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant, botanically known as Chrysanthemum×morifolium and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Coral Pilar’.
The new Chrysanthemum is a product of a mutation induction breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Alva, Fla. The objective of the program is to create new Chrysanthemum cultivars with describe inflorescence form and floret colors, good substance, and good postproduction longevity.
The new Chrysanthemum is a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of a proprietary induced mutation that originated by exposing unrooted cuttings of the Chrysanthemum cultivar Dark Pilar, disclosed in U.S. Plant. Pat. No. 10,753, to X-ray radiation. The new Chrysanthemum was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within a population of plants of the irradiated selection in November, 1997, in Alva, 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 terminal cuttings taken in a controlled environment in Alva, Fla., has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar Coral Pilar 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 ‘Coral Pilar’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Coral Pilar’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Anemone-type inflorescences that are about 6.7 cm in diameter and with large anemone centers.
2. Attractive dark coral pink ray florets and yellow-tipped disc florets.
3. Very freely flowering habit with numerous inflorescences per stem.
4. Early flowering, response time is about 51 days.
5. Dark green foliage.
6. Thick and strong stems.
7. Good postproduction longevity with inflorescences maintaining good substance and color for about three or four weeks in an interior environment.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ from plants of the cultivar Dark Pilar primarily in ray floret color as plants of the cultivar Dark Pilar have purple-colored ray florets.
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. Colors in the photographs may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed bontanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Chrysanthemum.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering stem of ‘Coral Pilar’ grown as a spray-type cut Chrysanthemum.
The photograph on the second sheet comprises a close-up view of typical inflorescences of ‘Coral Pilar’.
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., under conditions which approximate commercial practice in a double-layer polyethylene-covered greenhouse. Two-week old rooted cuttings were planted on Feb. 10, 2000 and received 18 long day/short nights followed by short day/long nights until flowering. Plants were grown as single-stem cut chrysanthemums. During the production time, the following environmental conditions were measured: day temperatures, 18 to 27° C.; night temperatures, 16 to 18° C.; and light levels 2,000 to 4,000 foot-candles. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for six to ten typical flowering stems and were taken during the week of Apr. 30, 2000.
