Abstract
A Chrysanthemum plant named Bronze Cherie particularly characterized by its flat capitulum form; daisy capitulum type; greyed-orange ray floret color; diameter across face of capitulum of 35 to 44 mm when fully opened, when grown as a pinched spray pot mum; very floriferous, with excellent display of many small flowers; photoperiodic flowering response of 50 to 53 days after start of short days; plant height, with 13 to 14 long days after sticking unrooted cuttings and with 0 to 1 applications of 2500 ppm B-9 SP ranges from 20 to 25 cm when grown as a pinched pot mum with 4 cuttings in a 15 cm pot; branching pattern is spreading and prolific, each plant having 7 to 9 laterals after pinch; and recommended as a spray pot mum.
Description
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum, botanically known as Dendranthema grandiflora, and referred to by the cultivar name Bronze Cherie.
Bronze Cherie, identified as 5497 (89-114J03), is a product of a mutation induction program. The new cultivar was discovered and selected by inventor Susan M. Polys on May 21, 1993 in a controlled environment in Salinas, Calif. as one flowering plant within a flowering block established as rooted cuttings from stock plants which had been exposed as unrooted cuttings to an X-ray source of 1500 rads in Fort Myers, Fla. on Dec. 3, 1992. The irradiated parent cultivar was the cultivar Honey Cherie, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,695 and described as a flat daisy spray pot mum with soft honey-bronze ray floret color.
The irradiation program resulting in Bronze Cherie had as its primary objective the expansion of color ranges of the parent cultivar Honey Cherie. The irradiation program comprised irradiation of cuttings of the parent cultivar at irradiation levels of 1500, 1750 and 2000 rads. A total of 1522 cuttings harvested from a total of 225 irradiated plants were planted on Mar. 8, 1993. Of these, 9 initial selections were made, which selections were then revegetated and reflowered. Three consecutive flowerings resulted in discarding 6 of the original 9 selections on Jan. 24, 1994. The remaining three selections were maintained as PIs (Possible Introductions) and further trialed in Salinas, Calif. and Leamington, Ontario, Canada, ultimately resulting in the decision to introduce one selection as Bronze Cherie and one selection as Yellow Cherie. The one remaining selection is still being trialed. Yellow Cherie is disclosed in pending application Ser. No. 08/523,290 of applicant.
The first act of asexual reproduction of Bronze Cherie was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were taken from the initial selection in Jul. of 1993 in a controlled environment in Salinas, Calif., by technicians working under supervision of Susan M. Polys.
Horticultural examination of controlled flowerings of successive plantings has shown that the unique combination of characteristics as herein disclosed for Bronze Cherie are firmly fixed and are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
Bronze Cherie 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, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following observations, measurements and comparisons describe plants grown in Salinas, Calif., and in Leamington, Ontario, 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 Bronze Cherie, which, in combination, distinguish this Chrysanthemum as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. flat capitulum form.
2. Daisy capitulum type.
3. Greyed-orange ray floret color.
4. Diameter across face of capitulum of 35 to 44 mm when fully opened, when grown as a pinched spray pot mum.
5. Very floriferous, with excellent display of many small flowers.
6. Photoperiodic flowering response of 50-53 days after start of short days.
7. Plant height, with 13 to 14 long days after sticking unrooted cuttings and with 0 to 1 applications of 2500 ppm B-9 SP ranges from 20 to 25 cm when grown as a pinched pot mum with 4 cuttings in a 15 cm pot.
8. Branching pattern is spreading and prolific, each plant having 7 to 9 laterals after pinch.
9. Recommended as a spray pot mum.
The accompanying photographic drawing is a side view of Bronze Cherie, grown as a spray pot mum with 4 cuttings in a 15 cm pot, with the colors being as nearly true as possible with illustrations of this type.
Of the commercial cultivars known to the inventor, the most similar in comparison to Bronze Cherie is the parent cultivar Honey Cherie. All traits of Bronze Cherie are similar to those of Honey Cherie, except for the ray floret color. The ray floret color of Bronze Cherie is greyed-orange (R.H.S. 163A to 163C), while the ray floret color of Honey Cherie is described as soft honey-bronze (R.H.S. 12B, overlaid and slightly streaked with 163B).
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 pot mum with 4 cuttings in a 15 cm pot in Salinas, Calif. on May 17, 1995.
