Abstract

A Chrysanthemum plant named Pasadena particularly characterized by its flat capitulum form, spoon daisy capitulum type, dark red-purple ray floret color, diameter across face of capitulum of up to 14 cm at maturity when grown as a pinched disbud pot mum, uniform eight week photoperiodic flowering response to short days, short plant height when grown as a pinched pot mum, and spreading branching pattern.

Description

The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum, botanically known as Dendranthema grandiflora, and referred to by the cultivar name Pasadena.
Pasadena, identified as 84-Y91002, was originated from a cross made by Cornelis P. VandenBerg in a controlled breeding program in Salinas, Calif., in 1984.
The female parent of Pasadena was an unnamed seedling identified as 84-418005. The male parent of Pasadena was an unnamed seedling identified as 81-C53001.
Pasadena was discovered and selected as one flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross by Cornelis P. VandenBerg in November of 1984, in a controlled environment in Salinas, Calif.
The first act of asexual reproduction of Pasadena was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were taken from the initial selection in January of 1985 in a controlled environment in Salinas, Calif., by technicians working under formulations established and supervised by Cornelis P. VandenBerg.
Horticultural examination of controlled flowering of successive plantings has shown that the unique combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for Pasadena are firmly fixed and are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
Pasadena has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity and daylength.
The following observations, measurements and comparisons describe plants grown in Salinas, Calif. and Leamington, Canada, under greenhouse conditions which approximate those generally used in commercial greenhouse practice.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be basic characteristics of Pasadena, which, in combination, distinguish this Chrysanthemum as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Flat capitulum form.
2. Spoon daisy capitulum type.
3. Dark red-purple ray floret color.
4. Diameter across face of capitulum up to 14 cm at maturity, when grown as a pinched disbud pot mum.
5. Uniform eight week photoperiodic flowering response to short days.
6. Short plant height, requiring 7 to 14 long days after pinch prior to short days and 0 to 1 application of 2500 ppm B-9 SP to attain a flowered plant height of 25 to 35 cm for year-round flowerings when grown as a pinched pot mum in a 15 cm pot.
7. Branching pattern is spreading.
The accompanying photographic drawings show typical inflorescence and leaf characteristics of Pasadena, with the colors being as nearly true as possible with illustrations of this type. Sheet 1 is a color photograph of Pasadena grown as a pinched disbud pot mum grown in a 15 cm pot. Sheet 2 is a black and white photograph of three views of the inflorescence of Pasadena. Sheet 3 is a black and white photograph showing the upper and under sides of the leaves of Pasadena at three stages of development (mature, intermediate and immature).
Of the commercial cultivars known to the inventor, the most similar in comparison to Pasadena is Neoga, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,312. Reference is made to attached Chart A, which compares certain characteristics of Pasadena to the same characteristics of Neoga.
Similar traits are capitulum form and type, branching pattern, and flowering response. The ray floret color of Pasadena is a very dark red-purple, compared to the light purple color of Neoga. The spoon length of Pasadena is shorter than that of Neoga. Pasadena has a slightly larger flower and a shorter plant habit than Neoga.
In the following description color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart. The color values were determined on plant material grown as a pinched disbud pot mum in Salinas, Calif. on Mar. 28, 1989.
