Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Mouria Yellow’, characterized by its compact, upright, outwardly spreading and rounded plant habit; freely branching habit; dense and full plant habit; uniform and freely flowering habit; and decorative-type inflorescences with bright yellow-colored ray florets.

Description

Botanical designation: Chrysanthemum×morifolium.
Cultivar denomination: ‘MOURIA YELLOW’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
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 ‘Mouria Yellow’.
The new Chrysanthemum plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Oostnieuwkerke, Belgium. The objective of the breeding program is to create new freely flowering Chrysanthemum plants with unique and attractive ray floret coloration.
The new Chrysanthemum plant originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in Oostnieuwkerke, Belgium in October, 2005 of Chrysanthemum×morifolium ‘Pesaro Yellow’, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with Chrysanthemum×morifolium ‘Veria’, not patented. The new Chrysanthemum plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant from within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in Oostnieuwkerke, Belgium in October, 2006.
Asexual reproduction of the new Chrysanthemum plant by vegetative cuttings was first conducted in a controlled greenhouse environment in Oostnieuwkerke, Belgium in January, 2007. Asexual reproduction by cuttings has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum 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 ‘Mouria Yellow’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Mouria Yellow’ as a new and distinct Chrysanthemum cultivar:
    • 1. Compact, upright, outwardly spreading and rounded plant habit.
    • 2. Freely branching habit; dense and full plant habit.
    • 3. Uniform and freely flowering habit.
    • 4. Decorative-type inflorescences with bright yellow-colored ray florets.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ from the female parent, ‘Pesaro Yellow’, in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum have bright green-colored leaves whereas plants of ‘Pesaro Yellow’ have dark green-colored leaves.
    • 2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum flower later than plants of ‘Pesaro Yellow’.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ from the male parent, ‘Veria’, in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum are not as vigorous as plants of ‘Veria’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum have larger leaves than plants of ‘Veria’.
    • 3. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum flower earlier than plants of ‘Veria’.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum can be compared to plants of Chrysanthemum×morifolium ‘Yoerica’, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 11,842. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Oostnieuwkerke, Belgium, plants of the new Chrysanthemum differed from plants of ‘Yoerica’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum had glossier and darker green-colored leaves than plants of ‘Yoerica’.
    • 2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum had more leaves than plants of ‘Yoerica’.
    • 3. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum had smaller inflorescences than plants of ‘Yoerica’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new Chrysanthemum plant. This photograph shows the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photograph may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Chrysanthemum plant. The photograph comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Mouria Yellow’ grown in a container.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The aforementioned photograph and following observations and measurements describe plants grown in 19-cm containers in an outdoor nursery in Oostnieuwkerke, Belgium during the summer and autumn under conditions and practices which approximate those generally used in commercial production. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 25° C. to 30° C. and night temperatures ranged from 15° C. to 20° C. Plants were 20 weeks old when the photograph and description were taken. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2005 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
