Abstract
A distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Zesty Yomegan’, characterized by its upright plant habit; freely branching growth habit; uniform and freely flowering habit; duplex daisy-type inflorescences; and dark pink-colored ray florets.
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 ‘Zesty Yomegan’.
The new Chrysanthemum is a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of the Chrysanthemum cultivar Megan, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,756. The new Chrysanthemum was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within a population of flowering plants of the parent cultivar in October, 1996 in a controlled environment in Highstown, N.J. The selection of this plant was based on its unique ray floret color.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal cuttings taken in a controlled environment in Gainesville, Fla. since December, 1997, has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar Zesty Yomegan 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 ‘Zesty Yomegan’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Zesty Yomegan’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Upright plant habit.
2. Freely branching, dense, full plants.
3. Uniform and freely flowering.
4. Duplex daisy-type inflorescences.
5. Dark pink-colored ray florets.
Compared to plants of the parent cultivar Megan, plants of the new Chrysanthemum flower earlier and differ in ray floret color.
The accompanying photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Chrysanthemum. These photographs show 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 at the top of the sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Zesty Yomegan’.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a close-up view of typical inflorescences of the cultivar ‘Zesty Yomegan’.
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 those generally used in commercial garden Chrysanthemum production. One rooted cutting was planted in a 15-cm container in July, 2000 and plants were grown under natural season conditions. Plants were not pinched, that is, the terminal apex was not removed to enhance branching. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for typical flowering plants.
