ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
‘Hector’ is a product of a breeding and selection program for outdoor pot mums (garden mums) which had the objective of creating new
Chrysanthemum
cultivars with a decorative type flower, a natural season flower date around August 11-16; blooming for a period of 5 weeks. The new plant of the present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of
Chrysanthemum
plant ‘Hector’ is a seedling resulting from the open pollination among groups of
Chrysanthemum
cultivars maintained under the control of the inventor for breeding purposes. The new and distinct cultivar was discovered and selected as one flowering plant by Mark Roland Boeder on a cultivated field in Rijsenhout Holland in August 2001. The seedling resulted from the crossing of the female parent, 99.4245, with a mixed population of
Chrysanthemum
plants serving as male parents. The plant has been asexually reproduced by cuttings in greenhouses at Rijsenhout Holland. The new cultivar has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics through successive propagations.
