Abstract

A new variety of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Plum Crazy’, characterized by its good uniform canopy of dark purple flowers. The new variety has a medium vigor, a free branching and uniform spreading habit, a good foliage presentation and inflorescences week 38 in natural season.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: Botanical Classification: Chrysanthemum×morifolium Ramat.
Variety denomination: The new Chrysanthemum variety denomination is ‘Plum Crazy’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum botanically known as Chrysanthemum×morifolium Ramat., and referred to by the cultivar name ‘Plum Crazy’, identified as 30769-0 originated from a cross made in a controlled breeding program in Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom. The new and cultivar was discovered and selected as a flowering plant in September 2000.
The female parent of the new variety is an undistributed, unpatented seedling identified as G69D2 and the male parent is the unpatented variety ‘Cyblis’.
The new variety ‘Plum Crazy’ has been asexually reproduced by vegetative cuttings in Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom and the distinguishing characteristics are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
‘Plum Crazy’ is a garden type of Chrysanthemum plant variety having a uniformed domed capitulum of dark purple decorative type inflorescences.
Comparison with Female Parent
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Plum Crazy’ are dissimilar to the female parent ‘G69D2’ in plant habit and growth rate. In side-by-side comparisons in Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom, under commercial practice, plants of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Plum Crazy’ differed from plants of the female parent ‘G69D2’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. The new variety ‘Plum Crazy’ produces dark purple decorative inflorescences whereas the female parent ‘G69D2’ produces pink decorative inflorescences.
    • 2. In natural growth condition, plants of the new variety ‘Plum Crazy’ show inflorescences one week after plants of the female parent ‘G69D2’.
    • 3. The plants of the new variety ‘Plum Crazy’ have a more uniform growing habit than the plants of the female parent ‘G69D2’.
Comparison with Male Parent
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Plum Crazy’ are similar to the male parent ‘Cyblis’ in plant habit and growth rate. However, in side-by-side comparisons in Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom, under commercial practice, plants of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Plum Crazy’ differed from plants of the male parent ‘Cyblis’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. The new variety ‘Plum Crazy’ produces dark purple decorative inflorescences whereas the male parent ‘Cyblis’ produces purple daisy inflorescences.
    • 2. In natural growth condition, plants of the new variety ‘Plum Crazy” show inflorescences one week before plants of the male parent ‘Cyblis’.
Comparison with Most Similar Variety
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Plum Crazy’ are similar to plants of the variety ‘Jenny Wren Crimson’ U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,035 in plant habit and growth rate. However, in side-by-side comparisons in Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom, under commercial practice, plants of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Plum Crazy’ differed from plants of ‘Jenny Wren Crimson’ in the following characteristics:
    • 1. The new variety ‘Plum Crazy’ produces dark purple inflorescences and the variety ‘Jenny Wren Crimson’ produces crimson inflorescences.
    • 2. Plants of the new variety ‘Plum Crazy’ have larger blooms than the plants of the ‘Jenny Wren Crimson’.
    • 3. In natural growth condition, plants of the new variety ‘Plum Crazy’ flower three weeks later than plants of ‘Jenny Wren Crimson’.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATIONS
Typical specimens of the plant and inflorescences for the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Plum Crazy’ are shown in the accompanying photograph. The colors shown are as true as possible within the usual limits of this kind of illustration.
FIG. 1 is a whole plant view of the new variety ‘Plum Crazy’ grown in a pot.
The plant shown in the illustration is around 90 days from the commencement of planting outdoors in natural season conditions.
 DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The following description of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Plum Crazy’ is of plants grown outside, natural season, in Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom in the month of September in 2010. The cultivar has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in the environment such as temperature, length of day and light intensity, without any variance in genotype. The commercial classification of the new variety is a garden Chrysanthemum.
Plants of the new variety have been grown successfully under temperature conditions averaging about 10° C. at night and about 10° C. to 25° C. during the day. The plants were grown outdoors in 4 liter pots using a loamless compost. No growth retardants were used.
To produce a commercial product, the plants need not to be pinched. The typical container size for commercial growth is 4 liters. It has been observed that the shelf life of the new variety is about 28 days with a response time of about 13 weeks natural season. The new variety is suitable for a temperature range of 10° C. to 25° C.
The new variety may be produced as a garden pot plant. The following description is with respect to a plant produced as a garden pot plant. In the description of this new Chrysanthemum variety, color values have been taken from The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, edition 2001.
