Abstract

A Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Ceshakira White’ characterized by its large sized spider type inflorescences with white ray-florets and a green disc, with a response time of 50 days, and which can be grown as a spraymum as well as a disbud mum.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
‘Ceshakira White’ is a product of a breeding-program which had the objective of creating new chrysanthemum cultivars with a spider type flower, a 7 week response and a medium plant height (90 cm). The new plant of the present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant. ‘Ceshakira White’ is a seedling from a cross in a breeding program maintained under the control of inventor. The female parent is # 16104—unpatented—, an unnamed seedling not available to inventor for description. The male parent is unknown, being a mixed population of a group of male parents. The new and distinct cultivar was discovered and selected as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross by Mark Roland Boeder in a controlled environment (greenhouse) in Rijsenhout, The Netherlands in 2002. The first act of asexual reproduction of ‘Ceshakira White’ was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were taken from the initial selection in 2002 and propagated further in a controlled environment in Rijsenhout, The Netherlands.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is a new and distinct variety of chrysanthemum bearing large sized double-type spider inflorescences with white ray-florets and a green disc; this spraymum variety can also be grown as a disbud.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The present invention of a new and distinct variety of chrysanthemum is shown in the accompanying drawings, the color being as nearly true as possible with color photographs of this type.
FIG. 1 shows a plant of the cultivar in full bloom.
FIG. 2 shows the various stages of blooms of the new cultivar.
FIG. 3 shows the foliage of the new cultivar.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
This new variety of chrysanthemum is of the botanical classification Chrysanthemum morifolium. The observations and measurements were gathered from plants grown in April/May in a greenhouse in Rijsenhout, The Netherlands in a photo-periodic controlled crop under conditions generally used in commercial practice. The greenhouse temperatures during this crop were at day-time between 18° C. and 25° C. and at night 20° C. After a long day period of 14 days the photo-periodic response time in this crop was 50 days. After the long day period to flowering growth retardants were applied 2 to 3 times in an average dose of 2.5 gram/liter water. The plants were observed (directly) during the flowering of this crop. This variety is sensitive to infestation by white rust, thrips and leaf miner. This new variety produces large sized spider inflorescences with white ray-florets and a green disc, flowering on the plant for 1 week. This new variety of chrysanthemum has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics throughout successive propagations, however the phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment such as light intensity and temperature. To show the phenotype as described ‘Ceshakira White’ can be under greenhouse conditions in The Netherlands. With assimilation light (minimum level 2500 lux) it can be planted year round under greenhouse conditions.
From the cultivars known to inventor the most similar existing cultivars in comparison to ‘Ceshakira White’ is ‘Delianne’ non patented and ‘Anastasia’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 13,550). When ‘Delianne’, ‘Anastasia’ and ‘Ceshakira White’ are being compared the following differences and similarities are noticed: ‘Delianne’, ‘Anastasia’ and ‘Ceshakira White’ all have spider type white inflorescences. The differences of ‘Delianne’, ‘Anastasia’ and ‘Ceshakira White’ are (1) number of inflorescences per stem. ‘Ceshakira White’ produces a higher number of blooms per stem than ‘Delianne’ or ‘Anastasia’. (2) visibility of disc florets. In mature flowers, the presence of disc florets is more conspicuous in ‘Ceshakira White’ than in ‘Delianne’ and ‘Anastasia’. (3) Width of ray-florets. The width of ray florets of ‘Anastasia’ is smaller than that of ‘Delianne’ and ‘Ceshakira White’.
The following is a description of the plant and characteristics that distinguish ‘Ceshakira White’ as a new and distinct variety. The color designations are taken from the plant itself. Accordingly, any discrepancies between the color designations and the colors depicted in the photographs are due to photographic tolerances. The color chart used in this description is: The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, edition 1995.
