ABSTRACT:
RELATED CULTIVARS
‘Everest Pink’ is related to ‘Everest Salmon’ (see copending Ser. No. 09/276,693) and ‘Everest White’ (see copending Ser. No. 09/276,633). ‘Everest Salmon’ and ‘Everest White’ are mutants from ‘Everest Pink’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
‘Everest Pink’ is a product of a breeding-program which had the objective of creating new chrysanthemum cultivars with a daisy type flower, a 6.5-7 week response and a short till medium plant height. The new plant of the present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant. ‘Everest Pink’ is a seedling from a cross in a breeding program maintained under the control of inventor. The female parent is # 90.1402 —unpatented—, an unnamed seedling not available to inventor for description. The male parent is unknown, being a mixed pollation of a group of male parents. The new and distinct cultivar was discovered and selected as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross by Rob Noodelijk in a controlled environment (greenhouse) in Rijsenhout Holland in May 1995. The first act of asexual reproduction of ‘Everest Pink’ was accomplished when vegetative cuttings were taken from the initial selection in July 1995 in a controlled environment in Rijsenhout Holland.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is a new and distinct variety of chrysanthemum bearing medium sized blooms with pale pink ray-florets and yellow-green disc florets.
