ABSTRACT:

LATIN NAME
Dendranthema morifolium.
VARIETY
‘GEDI ONE MIS’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant, herein after referred to by the cultivar name ‘GEDI ONE MIS’.
This new cultivar originated from hybridization of a female parent, cultivar ‘Marenco’ (unpatented in the United States), and a male parent cultivar ‘Bronia’ (unpatented in the United States). The new cultivar was discovered by the inventor in October 1996.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by apical tip cutting and meristem tissue culture was performed in Oxnard, Calif and has shown that the unique features of this new cultivar are stable and reproduced true to type on successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The cultivar ‘GEDI ONE MIS’ has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, daylength, and light intensity, without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘GEDI ONE MIS’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘GEDI ONE MIS’ as a new and distinct Chrysanthemum:
1. Decorative type inflorescence;
2. Consistent flowering response to short days, blooming consistently after 49 days of short day length;
3. Free branching habit; and
4. Compact growth habit.
Plants of the new cultivar are similar to plants of the parent cultivar, ‘Marenco’, in most horticultural characteristics, however plants of the new cultivar differed from plants of the cultivar ‘Marenco’ in the following characteristics:
1. The new cultivar naturally blooms 2 weeks earlier;
2. The new cultivar has blooms more uniformly;
3. The new cultivar has more blooms per flowering branch; and
4. The new cultivar has more ray florets.
Plants of the new cultivar are also similar to plants of the parent cultivar, ‘Bronia,’ in most horticultural characteristics, however plants of the new cultivar differed from plants of the cultivar ‘Bronia ’ in the following characteristics:
1. The new cultivar has different ray floret color;
2. The new cultivar has more blooms per flowering branch; and
3. The new cultivar has a wider diameter bloom.
The new cultivar can be compared to the Chrysanthemum cultivar ‘Jenny Wren’ (disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 10,213). However plants of the new Chrysanthemum differed from the plants of the cultivar ‘Jenny Wren’ in the following characteristics:
1. The new cultivar has more ray florets;
2. The new cultivar has a more round plant shape and greater branching;
3. The new cultivar has a shorter internode length;
4. The new cultivar has a more flexible plant form; and
5. The new cultivar has more blooms per flowering branch.
