Abstract

A new and distinct Chrysanthemum plant cultivar characterized by large decorative type inflorescences, consistent flowering response to short days, blooming consistently after 49 days of short day length, free branching habit, and a consistent natural season flowering habit during the first two weeks of September.

Description

LATIN NAME
Dendranthema morifolium.
VARIETY
‘GEDI ONE FRI’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant, botanically known as Dendranthema morifolium and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘GEDI ONE FRI.’
The new cultivar is a product of hybridization of the female parent ‘GEDI WO’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,259) and the male parent ‘Speedo’ (unpatented). The new cultivar was discovered and selected by the inventor in October 1997.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by apical tip cutting and meristem tissue culture was performed in Oxnard, Calif. and has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type on successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘GEDI ONE FRI’ 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 ‘GEDI ONE FRI.’ These observations were made on plants approximately 130 days old from rooted cuttings. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘GEDI ONE FRI’ as a new and distinct Chrysanthemum cultivar:
1. Large decorative type inflorescence;
2. Consistent flowering response to short days, blooming consistently after 49 days of short day length;
3. Free branching habit; and
4. Consistent natural season flowering habit during the first two weeks of September.
Plants of the new cultivar are similar to plants of the parent cultivars, ‘Gedi WO’ and ‘Speedo’ in most horticultural characteristics, however plants of the new cultivar differed from plants of the parent cultivars primarily in bloom characteristics. In comparisons of plants of the new cultivar with the parent cultivars the following characteristics differed:
1. The new cultivar has a wider diameter flower than cultivar ‘Gedi WO;’
2. The new cultivar has many more ray florets than cultivar ‘Gedi WO;’
3. The new cultivar naturally blooms three weeks earlier than the cultivar ‘Gedi WO;’
4.The new cultivar has fully decorative flowers, while the cultivar ‘Gedi WO’ has daisy type flowers;
5. The new cultivar has a wider diameter flower than the cultivar ‘Speedo;’
6. The new cultivar has many more ray florets than the cultivar ‘Speedo;’ and
7. The new cultivar naturally blooms three weeks earlier than the cultivar ‘Speedo’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The photograph shows a plant of the new cultivar which was grown in a 2-gallon container. A single cutting was grown in the container, and the plant was grown in outdoor field conditions.
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 in a commercial field in Oxnard, Calif. in the month of September 2000. The growing conditions range from 60° to 65° F. at night to 70° to 85° F. during the day. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical flowering types.
