Abstract

A new Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Synjac Pinka’ particularly distinguished by the small to medium sized flowers with light red-purple ray florets, dark yellow-green foliage, a garden Chrysanthemum with uniform ball-shaped plant habit and a natural flowering season of about mid-September.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species of the plant claimed: Chrysanthemum×morifolium.
Varietal denomination: ‘Synjac Pinka’.
BACKGROUND OF THE NEW PLANT
The present invention comprises a new Chrysanthemum, botanically known as Chrysanthemum×morifolium, and hereinafter referred to by the variety name ‘Synjac Pinka’.
‘Synjac Pinka’ is a product of a planned breeding program. The new cultivar has small to medium sized flowers with light red-purple ray florets, dark yellow-green foliage, a garden Chrysanthemum with uniform ball-shaped plant habit and a natural flowering season of about mid-September.
‘Synjac Pinka’ originates as a natural whole plant mutation of ‘Yojacqueline’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 18,927 and was discovered in an outdoor controlled breeding trial and selected by the inventor as a single flowering plant within a population of the parent cultivar in Alva, Fla. in November 2006. The parent cultivar ‘Yojacqueline’ has two-toned pink ray florets with a faster natural flowering season response.
The first act of asexual reproduction of ‘Synjac Pinka’ was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were propagated from the initial selection in December 2006 in a controlled environment in Alva, Fla.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF INVENTION
Horticultural examination of plants grown from cuttings of the plant initiated in December 2006, and continuing thereafter, has demonstrated that the combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for ‘Synjac Pinka’ are firmly fixed and are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
‘Synjac Pinka’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity and day length.
A Plant Breeder's Right for this cultivar was applied for in Canada on Oct. 30, 2009 (09-6769). ‘Synjac Pinka’ has not been made publicly available more than one year prior to the filing of this application.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be basic characteristics of the new variety. The combination of these characteristics distinguishes this Chrysanthemum as a new and distinct variety.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS
The accompanying photographic drawing shows typical flower and foliage characteristics of ‘Synjac Pinka’ with colors being as true as possible with an illustration of this type. The photographic drawing shows a flowering potted plant of the new variety, and a close-up of the flowers.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The plant descriptions and measurements were taken in Gilroy, Calif. in May 2010 under natural light. These plants were about 10 weeks old.
The aforementioned photographs were taken in Gilroy, Calif. in late October 2009 outdoors. These plants were approximately 12 weeks of age.
Color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart (R.H.S.) 2001.
