Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Dekstarga’, characterized by its small anemone-type inflorescences with red purple-colored ray florets and dark purple-colored disc florets that become pale yellow in color with development; strong and upright flowering stems; uniform and freely flowering habit; and excellent postproduction longevity.
Description
Botanical designation: Chrysanthemum×morifolium.
Cultivar denomination: ‘DEKSTARGA’.
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 ‘Dekstarga’.
The new Chrysanthemum plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Hensbroek, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program is to create new anemone-type Chrysanthemum plants with small inflorescences with attractive ray and disc floret coloration and excellent postproduction longevity.
The new Chrysanthemum plant originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in Hensbroek, The Netherlands on Apr. 10, 2007 of a proprietary selection of Chrysanthemum×morifolium identified as code number 06.53068.04, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Chrysanthemum×morifolium identified as code number 41411, not patented. The new Chrysanthemum plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a single flowering plant from within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in Hensbroek, The Netherlands in November, 2007.
Asexual reproduction of the new Chrysanthemum plant by terminal cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Hensbroek, The Netherlands since December, 2007, has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
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 ‘Dekstarga’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Dekstarga’ as a new and distinct Chrysanthemum plant:
-
- 1. Small anemone-type inflorescences with red purple-colored ray florets and dark purple-colored disc florets that become pale yellow in color with development.
- 2. Strong and upright flowering stems.
- 3 Uniform and freely flowering habit.
- 4. Excellent postproduction longevity; plants maintain good substance for about 21 days in an interior environment.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum flower seven days later than plants of the female parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum and the female parent selection differ in ray floret color as plants of the female parent selection have white and greyed red-colored ray florets.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum flower five days earlier than plants of the male parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum are more freely flowering than plants of the male parent selection.
- 3. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum have smaller inflorescences than plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum can be compared to plants of Chrysanthemum×morifolium ‘Dekcedis’, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Hensbroek, The Netherlands, plants of the new Chrysanthemum differed from plants of ‘Dekcedis’ in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum flowered seven days later than plants of ‘Dekcedis’.
- 2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum and ‘Dekcedis’ differed in ray floret color as plants of ‘Dekcedis’ had white and greyed red-colored ray florets.
The accompanying colored photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Chrysanthemum plant. 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 plant.
The photograph on the first sheet comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering stem of ‘Dekstarga’ grown as a spray-type.
The photograph on the second sheet comprises close-up views of the upper (top of photograph) and lower surfaces (bottom of photograph) of typical inflorescences and leaves of ‘Dekstarga’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown during the winter in Hensbroek, The Netherlands, under commercial practice in ground beds in a glass-covered greenhouse. Plants were initially given 1.5 weeks of 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 18° C. to 25° C., night temperatures ranged from 20° C. to 22° C. and light levels were about 7 kilolux. Plants were 7.5 weeks old when the description was taken and nine weeks old when the photographs were taken. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2007 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
