Abstract

A distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Foxy Yopatricia’, characterized by its upright, outwardly spreading and mounded plant habit; freely branching habit; uniform and freely flowering habit; decorative-type inflorescences; red-colored ray florets; and natural season flowering in late September in the Northern Hemisphere.

Description

Botanical classification/cultivar designation: Chrysanthemum×morifolium cultivar Foxy Yopatricia.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant, botanically known as Chrysanthemum×morifolium, commercially known as a garden-type Chrysanthemum and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Foxy Yopatricia’.
The new Chrysanthemum is a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of the Chrysanthemum cultivar Yopatricia, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,907. The new Chrysanthemum was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within a population of plants of the cultivar Yopatricia in a controlled environment in DeMotte, Ind. in September, 2000. The selection of this plant was based on its unique ray floret coloration.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by terminal cuttings taken in a controlled environment in Gainesville, Fla. since January, 2001, has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar Foxy Yopatricia 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 ‘Foxy Yopatricia’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Foxy Yopatricia’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Upright, somewhat outwardly spreading and mounded plant habit.
2. Freely branching habit; dense and full plants.
3. Uniform and freely flowering habit.
4. Decorative-type inflorescences.
5. Red-colored ray florets.
6. Natural season flowering in late September in the Northern Hemisphere.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum are most similar to plants of the the cultivar Yopatricia. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Alva, Fla., plants of the new Chrysanthemum differed from plants of the cultivar Yopatricia in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum were smaller than plants of the cultivar Yopatricia.
2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum flowered about two days later than plants of the cultivar Yopatricia.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum can also be compared to plants of the Chrysanthemum cultivar Bravo, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,888. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Alva, Fla., plants of the new Chrysanthemum differed from plants of the cultivar Bravo in the following characteristics:
1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum were shorter and more mounded than plants of the cultivar Bravo.
2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum flowered about ten days later than plants of the cultivar Bravo.
3. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum had smaller inflorescences than plants of the cultivar Bravo.
4. Ray floret color of plants of the new Chrysanthemum did not fade as readily as ray floret color of plants of the cultivar Bravo.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
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 ‘Foxy Yopatricia’.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet comprises a close-up view of typical inflorescences of the cultivar ‘Foxy Yopatricia’.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
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 following observations and measurements describe plants grown in an outdoor nursery in Salinas, Calif., under natural season conditions and practices which approximate those generally used in commercial garden-type Chrysanthemum production. One cutting was planted in a 15.25-cm container in late May, 2002. Plants were not pinched, that is, the terminal apex was not removed to enhance branching. During the production of the plants, day temperatures averaged 20° C. and night averaged 13° C. Measurements and numerical values represent averages for typical flowering plants.
