Abstract
A new variety of light yellow chrysanthemum for greenhouse culture distinguished by its relatively short response, its rapid growth and the intense color of its blooms, its uniform year around flowering response, and its usefulness both for spray pot plant culture and as a spray plant for cut flower production.
Description
This new chrysanthemum plant was originated by me in 1972 as a seedling resulting from the cross of the unpatented variety "Dramatic" and an unknown pollen parent, the crossing having been made in the course of breeding efforts carried on by me at De Lier, Holland, for the development of improved chrysanthemum varieties. Because of its intense yellow color, rapid growth, and very strong stems, this plant was selected for propagation, and test, which was done under my direction at De Lier, Holland, by means of cuttings from the original plant, and propagation of the new plant through successive generations by vegetative cuttings has shown that its distinctive characteristics hold true and appear to be firmly fixed. Commercial scale propagation of this new chrysanthemum variety is now being done by vegetative cuttings at West Chicago, Ill., and at Cortez, Fla., U.S.A.
My new variety of chrysanthemum is illustrated by the accompanying drawings, of which the first sheet is a photographic rendition of a potted plant in full bloom, the photographic print having been hand painted to show the true color of the blooms, and the second sheet is a print of a mechanical reproduction of typical leaves of the new plant.
The following is a detailed description of my new chrysanthemum variety based upon observations made at West Chicago, Ill., U.S.A., in the Spring of 1978, the color designations being accorded to The R.H.S. Colour Chart published by The Royal Horticultural Society of London, England.

The particular distinctions of this new variety of chrysanthemum reside in the intense yellow color of its single flower form with the blooms averaging about 10 cm. in diameter and with light to moderate pollen production. This new plant has a photoperiodic response of about 7 to 8 weeks with flowering capability the year around. The foliage is glossy and dark green in color and the blooms are numerous, which makes the plant useful both as a spray pot plant and as a plant for the production of cut flowers.
