- This new chrysanthemum variety was discovered by me at Redwood City, Calif., in 1973 among a group of No. 2 Yellow Albatross chrysanthemum plants (unpatented) grown by me for commercial production of cut flowers and potted plants, the new plant being found as a sport of one of the Yellow Albatross plants in the said group. Because of its much larger flower size and lighter color, this sport was asexually reproduced by me for propagation through several generations to determine its growing characteristics and commercial value. This propagation was carried on by me and under my direction at Redwood City, Calif., by means of cuttings and the plants were observed to have many distinctive and valuable improvements over the parent variety which hold true from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed. Propagation of this new plant by means of vegetative cuttings is now being done at Redwood City, Calif., for the commercial market.

Abstract
A new variety of chrysanthemum plant originated as a sport of the cultivar No. 2 Yellow Albatross and distinguished from its parent by its lighter flower color, larger flower size and more incurved flower form, longer form retention, and increased stem diameter and length.
Description
This new chrysanthemum variety was discovered by me at Redwood City, Calif., in 1973 among a group of No. 2 Yellow Albatross chrysanthemum plants (unpatented) grown by me for commercial production of cut flowers and potted plants, the new plant being found as a sport of one of the Yellow Albatross plants in the said group. Because of its much larger flower size and lighter color, this sport was asexually reproduced by me for propagation through several generations to determine its growing characteristics and commercial value. This propagation was carried on by me and under my direction at Redwood City, Calif., by means of cuttings and the plants were observed to have many distinctive and valuable improvements over the parent variety which hold true from generation to generation and appear to be firmly fixed. Propagation of this new plant by means of vegetative cuttings is now being done at Redwood City, Calif., for the commercial market.
My new variety of chrysanthemum is illustrated by the accompanying drawings in which, on sheet 1, the left hand view shows the flower in full bloom and the right hand view shows a comparison of the flower on the new plant with a typical flower of the parent variety which is positioned at the left in that view; and sheet 2 shows pen-and-ink tracings of typical leaves of the new plant variety taken from a single stem. The flower views are in full color as nearly true as it is reasonably possible to obtain by conventional photographic procedures and considering the very light shades of yellow involved.
