CHRYSANTHEMUM PLANT Filed March 4, 1964 United States Patent York Filed Mar. 4, 1964, Ser. No. 349,516 1 Claim. (Cl. Plt.82)
My present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of chrysanthemum plant produced as a result of crossing the variety Peaceful, an unpatented variety of my own origination, with the variety Picturesque, another variety of my own origination and likewise unpatented.
The instant variety, which is one of many developed by me during the course of extensive and careful crossing of a large number of varieties, has resulted in the new variety which enjoys many of the characteristics of the parents, although readily distinguishable therefrom, both varieties being What I term exhibition garden chrysanthemums.
I have purposely selected the variety Peaceful as the seed parent so as to furnish a reflexing cactus-like bloom, with the pollen parent Picturesque providing the incurving central portion of the bloom and vigorous plant habit.
All the foregoing is a part of this intensive program of development which I have undertaken over many years to provide new and distinct varieties with better characteristics in the garden chrysanthemum field.
The result of the hybridization previously referred to has been to produce my present new and distinct variety of chrysanthemum plant characterized by the generally Strong Purplish-Red color of its blooms with petals having much lighter reverses of Pale Purplish-Pink, reflexing outer petals and tightly incurving central petals on strong sturdy stems in a plant having upright habit and Weather resistant blooms.
More specifically, the blooms of my new variety are of the Strong Purplish-Red general tonality with petal reverses of much lighter Pale Purplish-Pink (Nickerson Color Fan published by the Munsell Color Company), the decided contrast between the outer reflexing petals and the tightly incurving central petals providing a novel appearance not heretofore present in these or similar varieties. As grown in the vicinity of Niles, Michigan in uniform culture, plants of my new variety are distinctly weather resistant and of medium height.
As will be understood from the foregoing, my new variety derives a number of characteristics from both parents, but what I consider better characteristics than either separately and my new variety differs from both parents and other known varieties in the several respects heretofore enumerated.
Under the conditions of culture previously mentioned, which have been undertaken in the region of Niles, Michigan, plants of my new variety grow vigorously with a decided contrast in petal colors and a quantity of blooms by early October.
My new variety when grown in the region of Niles, Michigan, blooms from early October until a killing frost with profuse numbers of blooms on each plant.
My new variety has been asexually reproduced by cut tings in the vicinity of Niles, Michigan, observations made herein as a basis, being during mid-October.
My new variety has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive asexual reproduction.
The accompanying drawing forming -a part hereof shows a typical bloom of my new variety of chrysanthemum in a color illustration which I believe is reasonably accurate and particularly as to color illustrations of its character is at least representative.
The following is a detailed description of my new variety of chrysanthemum plant, the color references being to Plant Pat. 2,519 Patented May 25, 1965 the Nickerson Color Fan published by the Munsell Color Company:
