Abstract
A distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Joker’, characterized by its upright plant habit; freely flowering habit; daisy-type inflorescences that are about 7.1 cm in diameter; attractive bright red-colored ray florets that resist fading and light green to bright yellow-colored disc florets; response time about 56 days; dark green-colored foliage; strong peduncles; and good postproduction longevity with inflorescences and foliage maintaining good substance and color for about 14 to 18 days in an interior environment.
Description
Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Chrysanthemum×morifolium cultivar Joker.
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 ‘Joker’.
The new Chrysanthemum is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Salinas, Calif. and Alva, Fla. The objective of the breeding program is to create new cut Chrysanthemum cultivars having inflorescences with desirable colors and good form and substance.
The new Chrysanthemum originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in March, 1998, in Salinas, Calif., of the Chrysanthemum×morifolium cultivar Stroika, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary Chrysanthemum seedling selection identified as K036, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent.
The cultivar Joker was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled environment in Alva, Fla., in March, 1999. The selection of this plant was based on its desirable inflorescence color and good form and substance.
Asexual reproduction of the new Chrysanthemum by terminal cuttings taken in a controlled environment in Alva, Fla. since June, 1999, has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the cultivar Joker have 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 ‘Joker’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Joker’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Upright cut Chrysanthemum that is usually grown as a natural spray.
2. Freely flowering habit, about eight inflorescences per flowering stem.
3. Daisy-type inflorescences that are about 7.1 cm in diameter.
4. Attractive bright red-colored ray florets that resist fading and light green to bright yellow-colored disc florets.
5. Response time about 56 days.
6. Dark green foliage.
7. Strong peduncles.
8. Good postproduction longevity with inflorescences and foliage maintaining good substance and color for about 14 to 18 days in an interior environment.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum are most similar to plants of the female parent, the cultivar Stroika. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Alva, Fla., plants of the new Chrysanthemum differed from plants of the cultivar Stroika in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum were about 10 cm taller than plants of the cultivar Stroika.
2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum flowered about two to three days earlier than plants of the cultivar Stroika.
3. Ray florets of plants of the new Chrysanthemum were brighter and lighter red in color than ray florets of plants of the cultivar Stroika.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum can be compared to plants of the male parent selection. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Alva, Fla., plants of the new Chrysanthemum differed from plants of the male parent selection primarily in ray floret coloration as ray florets of the male parent were orange bronze in color.
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 ‘Joker’ grown as a natural spray.
The photograph on the second sheet comprises a close-up view of a typical flowering stem of ‘Joker’ grown as a natural spray.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in La Ceja, Antioquia, Colombia, South America, under conditions which approximate commercial practice in a single-layer polyethylene-covered greenhouse. Two-week old rooted cuttings were planted on Aug. 19, 2002 and received 14 long day/short nights followed by short day/long nights until flowering. Plants were grown as single-stem natural spray cut Chrysanthemums. During the production time, the following environmental conditions were measured: day temperatures, 20 to 27° C.; night temperatures, 8 to 13° C.; and light levels, 4,000 to 6,000 foot-candles. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for six to ten typical flowering stems and were taken about ten weeks after the start of short days.
