Abstract

A new and distinct Chrysanthemum plant cultivar characterized by a decorative-type inflorescence, consistent flowering response to short days, blooming consistently after 49 days of short day length, free branching habit, deep red ray florets, a very uniform round growth habit, and a large quantity of blooms per flowering branch.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant, botanically known as Chrysanthemum morifolium.
Variety denomination: The new and distinct Chrysanthemum plant is hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name ‘Gedi Two Are.’
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The new cultivar is a product of hybridization of a female parent, cultivar ‘Aldo’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,216), and a male parent, cultivar ‘Gedi RA8’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,605). This cultivar was discovered and selected by the inventor in October 1998.
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 cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type on successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘Gedi Two Are’ 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 Two Are.’ These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Gedi Two Are’ as a new and distinct Chrysanthemum cultivar:
1. Decorative-type inflorescence,
2. Consistent flowering response to short days, blooming consistently after 49 days of short day length,
3. Free branching habit,
4. Deep red ray florets,
5. Very uniform round growth habit, and
6. Large quantity of blooms per flowering branch.
The new cultivar ‘Gedi Two Are’ has more ray florets per inflorescence and different color ray florets than the female parent cultivar ‘Aldo.’ The new cultivar also blooms naturally earlier than ‘Aldo.’ The new cultivar ‘Gedi Two Are’ has a different flower type than the male parent cultivar ‘Gedi RA8’ and is taller and wider than the male parent. The new cultivar also has a wider bloom diameter than ‘Gedi RA8’ also known as ‘Red Alcala’.
In comparison to the commercial variety ‘Empire Diablo’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,586), the new cultivar ‘Gedi Two Are’ blooms naturally two weeks later and has a more flexible plant habit. The new cultivar also has a rounder shape and greater branching than ‘Empire Diablo’ and has more blooms per flowering branch.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The photograph shows a plant of ‘Gedi Two Are’ which was grown in a 6-inch container. One cutting was used in the pot.
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 Oxnard, Calif. during the month of December and January. The age of the observed plants is 79 days from a rooted cutting. The growing temperature ranged from 55° to 68° F. at night to 60° to 75 ° F. during the day. Measurements and numerical values represent averages of typical flowering types.
