Abstract
A distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Redbronze Pilar’, characterized by its anemone-type inflorescences that are about 6.3 cm in diameter and with large anemone centers; attractive dark red ray florets and yellow disc florets; freely and early flowering habit; dark green foliage; thick and strong stems; long peduncles 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 ‘Redbronze 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 desirable 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 Bronze Pilar, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,760, 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 December, 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 Redbronze 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 ‘Redbronze Pilar’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Redbronze Pilar’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Anemone-type inflorescences that are about 6.3 cm in diameter and with large anemone centers.
2. Attractive dark red ray florets and yellow disc florets.
3. Very freely flowering habit with numerous inflorescences per stem.
4. Early flowering, response time is about 49 days.
5. Dark green foliage.
6. Thick and strong stems.
7. Long peduncles.
8. 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 Bronze Pilar, primarily in ray floret color as plants of the cultivar Bronze Pilar have bronze-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 botanical 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 ‘Redbronze Pilar’ grown as a spray-type cut Chrysanthemum.
The photograph on the second sheet comprises a close-up view of typical inflorescences of ‘Redbronze 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 May 30, 2000 and received 20 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 Aug. 21, 2000.

Flowering response.—Under natural conditons, plant flowers in the autumn/winter in the Northern Hemisphere. 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). Plants exposed to three weeks of long day/short night conditions after planting followed by photoinductive short day/long night conditions flower about 49 days later.
Postproduction longevity.—In an interior environment, flowering stems will maintain good color and substance for about three or four weeks in an interior environment after one week of cool storage.
Quantity of inflorescences.—Freely flowering with about 15 inflorescences per flowering stem.
Inflorescence size.—Diameter: About 6.3 cm. Depth (height): About 1.9 cm. Diameter of disc: About 3.6 cm. Diameter of receptacle: About 8 mm.

Number of ray florets per inflorescence: About 77 arranged in about four rows. Color: When opening, upper surface: Close to 183A with overtones of 184A. When opening, lower surface: Ground color, 9D, underlain with 183C. Mature, upper surface: Close to 183A to 183B with overtones of 184A; fading to 183C to 184A with subsequent development. Mature, lower surface: Ground color, 9D, faintly underlain with 183C.
