Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Mona Lisa Yellow’, characterized by its decorative anemone-type inflorescences with elliptic-shaped, light yellow-colored ray florets and darker yellow-colored enlarged disc florets; strong and upright flowering stems; freely flowering habit; early and uniform flowering response; and good postproduction longevity.
Description
Botanical designation: Chrysanthemum×morifolium.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Mona Lisa Yellow’.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant, botanically known as Chrysanthemum×morifolium, commercially grown as a cut flower and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Mona Lisa Yellow’.
The new Chrysanthemum is a naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of the Chrysanthemum×morifolium cultivar Mona Lisa Cream, disclosed in U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 11/267,907. The new Chrysanthemum was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant within a population of plants of the cultivar in May, 2004, in Hensbroek, The Netherlands. The selection of this plant was based on its attractive ray floret color and good inflorescence form.
Asexual reproduction of the new Chrysanthemum by terminal cuttings in a controlled environment in Hensbroek, The Netherlands since July, 2004, has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
Plants of the cultivar ‘Mona Lisa Yellow’ 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 ‘Mona Lisa Yellow’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Mona Lisa Yellow’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum:
-
- 1. Decorative anemone-type inflorescences with elliptic-shaped, light yellow-colored ray florets and darker yellow-colored enlarged disc florets; typically grown as a spray-type.
- 2. Strong and upright flowering stems.
- 3. Freely flowering habit.
- 4. Early and uniform flowering response; plants flower about seven weeks after the start of photoinductive treatments.
- 5. Good postproduction longevity; plants maintain good substance for about three weeks in an interior environment.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ from plants of the parent, the cultivar Mona Lisa Cream, in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum have slightly darker green-colored leaves than plants of the cultivar Mona Lisa Cream.
- 2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum are not as freely flowering as plants of the cultivar Mona Lisa Cream.
- 3. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum and the cultivar Mona Lisa Cream differ in ray floret color as plants of the cultivar Mona Lisa Cream have white-colored ray florets.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum can be compared to plants of the Chrysanthemum cultivar Dekdakar, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,009. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Hensbroek, The Netherlands, plants of the new Chrysanthemum differed from plants of the cultivar Dekdakar in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum were stronger than plants of the cultivar Dekdakar.
- 2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum had larger leaves than plants of the cultivar Dekdakar.
- 3. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum had larger inflorescences than plants of the cultivar Dekdakar.
The accompanying colored 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 stem of ‘Mona Lisa Yellow’ grown as a natural spray.
The photograph at the bottom of the sheet is a close-up view of a typical flowering stem of ‘Mona Lisa Yellow’.
In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used. The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown during the winter in Hensbroek, The Netherlands, under commercial practice in a glass-covered greenhouse. Plants were initially given long day/short night treatments followed by short day/long night treatments to induce flower initiation and development. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 17.5° C. to 30° C., night temperatures ranged from 18.5° C. to 24° C. and light levels were about five kilolux. Plants were pinched once and were about eleven weeks from planting when the photographs and the description were taken.

- Parentage: Naturally-occurring whole plant mutation of the Chrysanthemum×morifolium cultivar Mona Lisa Cream, disclosed in U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 11/267,907.
- Propagation:
-
- Type.—Terminal vegetative cuttings.
- Time to initiate roots.—About six to seven days with temperatures about 20° C.
- Time to produce a rooted young plant.—About 14 to 16 days with temperatures about 20° C.
- Root description/habit.—Fine; light brown in color; freely branching.
-
- Plant description:
-
