Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘DLFMARA1’, characterized by its upright plant habit; uniform growth habit; vigorous growth habit and rapid growth rate; durable dark green-colored leaves; strong upright flowering stems; freely flowering habit; anemone-type inflorescences with white-colored ray florets; relative tolerance to low and high production temperatures; relative resistance to White Rust; and good postproduction longevity.
Description
Botanical designation: Chrysanthemum X morifolium.
Cultivar denomination: ‘DLFMARA1’.
A Japanese Plant Breeder's Rights application for the instant plant was filed by the Assignee, Deliflor Royalties B.V. of Maasdijk, The Netherlands on Jun. 21, 2021, application number 35513. Foreign priority is not claimed to this application.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant, botanically known as Chrysanthemum x morifolium, typically grown as a cut flower Chrysanthemum and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘DLFMARA1’.
The new Chrysanthemum plant is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Maasdijk, The Netherlands. The objective of the breeding program is to create new cut flower Chrysanthemum plants with unique and attractive inflorescences.
The new Chrysanthemum plant originated from a cross-pollination in February, 2018 of a proprietary selection of Chrysanthemum x morifolium identified as code number KR 2008.6601-1, not patented, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietary selection of Chrysanthemum x morifolium identified as code number KR 2013.2342-1, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The new Chrysanthemum plant was discovered and selected as a single flowering plant from within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in a controlled greenhouse environment in Maasdijk, The Netherlands in April, 2019.
Asexual reproduction of the new Chrysanthemum plant by vegetative terminal cuttings in a controlled greenhouse environment in Maasdijk, The Netherlands since April, 2019 has shown that the unique features of this new Chrysanthemum plant are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations of asexual reproduction.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘DLFMARA1’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘DLFMARA1’ as a new and distinct Chrysanthemum plant:
-
- 1. Upright plant habit; uniform growth habit.
- 2. Vigorous growth habit and rapid growth rate.
- 3. Durable dark green-colored leaves.
- 4. Strong upright flowering stems.
- 5. Freely flowering habit.
- 6. Anemone-type inflorescences with white-colored ray florets.
- 7. Relatively tolerant to low and high production temperatures.
- 8. Relatively resistant to White Rust.
- 9. Good postproduction longevity.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ primarily from plants of the female parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Leaves of plants of the new Chrysanthemum have shallower proximal sinuses than leaves of plants of the female parent selection.
- 2. Inflorescences of plants of the new Chrysanthemum have more ray florets than inflorescences of plants of the female parent selection.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ primarily from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics:
-
- 1. Disc florets of plants of the new Chrysanthemum are longer than disc florets of plants of the male parent selection.
- 2. Plants of the new Chrysanthemum are more resistant to White Rust than plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum can be compared to plants of Chrysanthemum X morifolium ‘Annecy White’, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons, plants of the new Chrysanthemum differ primarily from plants of ‘Annecy White’ in inflorescence size as plants of the new Chrysanthemum have smaller inflorescence than plants of ‘Annecy White’.
The accompanying photographs illustrate the overall appearance of the new Chrysanthemum plant showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type.
The photograph on the first sheet (FIG. 1 ) is a side perspective view of a typical flowering stem of ‘DLFMARA1’ grown as a spray-type cut flower.
The photograph on the second sheet (FIG. 2 ) is a close-up view of upper (left) and lower (right) surfaces of typical inflorescences and typical leaves of ‘DLFMARA1’.
The aforementioned photographs and following observations and measurements describe plants grown during the autumn in ground beds in a glass-covered greenhouse in Maasdijk, The Netherlands and under cultural practices typical of commercial cut Chrysanthemum production. Plants were initially given 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 averaged 8 klux. Plants were grown as single-stem spray-type plants and were eight weeks old when the photographs and the description were taken. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2015 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
