Abstract

A new variety of Chrysanthemum plant named ‘Swing Time Dark’ having deep orange red bronze single type flowers and a slightly domed capitulum form and branching habit.

Description

Latin name of the genus and species: Botanical classification: Dendranthema grandiflora.
Variety denomination: The new Chrysanthemum variety denomination is ‘Swing Time Dark.’
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum botanically known as Dendranthema grandiflora, and referred to by the cultivar name ‘Swing Time Dark.’
‘Swing Time Dark’ identified as 20230-3, was discovered as a natural mutation of a whole plant in a controlled cultivated planting of the variety ‘Swing Time’ (unpatented). The variety ‘Swing Time Dark’ has been asexually reproduced by vegetative cuttings at Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom and the distinguishing characteristics are retained through successive generations of asexual reproduction.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
‘Swing Time Dark’ is a pot type of Chrysanthemum plant variety having a slightly domed capitulum form and deep orange red bronze single flowers.
COMPARISON WITH PARENT
Plant habit of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Swing Time Dark’ is similar to the parent cultivar ‘Swing Time.’ In side-by-side comparisons in Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom, under commercial practice, plants of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Swing Time Dark’ differed from plants of the parent cultivar ‘Swing Time’ in the following characteristics.
1. Flowers of the new variety ‘Swing Time Dark’ are a more deep orange red color than ‘Swing Time.’
COMPARISON WITH OTHER VARIETIES
Plants of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Swing Time Dark’ are similar to the cultivar ‘Virunga Dark’ (unpatented) in plant habit and growth rate. In side-by-side comparisons in Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom, under commercial practice, Plants of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Swing Time Dark’ compared to plants of the cultivar ‘Virunga Dark’ in the following characteristics.
1. The flowers of the new variety ‘Swing Time Dark’ are dark orange whereas the flowers of the cultivar ‘Virunga Dark’ are light orange.
2. The plants of the new variety ‘Swing Time Dark’ have smaller inflorescence than the plants of the cultivar ‘Virunga Dark.’
BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS OF ILLUSTRATIONS
FIG. 1 is a whole plant view of the new variety ‘Swing Time Dark’ grown in a pot. The colors shown are as true as possible within the usual limits of this kind of illustration. The plant shown in the illustration is 60 days from the start of Short Days.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
The following description of the new Chrysanthemum variety ‘Swing Time Dark’ is of plants grown in a greenhouse in Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom in the month of June. The cultivar has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary significantly with variations in the environment such as temperature, length of day and light intensity, without any variance in genotype. The commercial classification of the new variety is a pot Chrysanthemum.
Plants of the new variety have been grown successfully under temperature conditions averaging about 18° C. at night and about 24° C. to 25° C. during the day under light conditions of about [e.g., 5,000 to 6,000] foot candles. The plants respond well to the use of growth retardant, such as three B9 treatments at about 2500 ppm. To produce a commercial product the plants may be pinched once. The typical container size for commercial growth is 14 cm. It has been observed that the shelf life of the new variety is about 21 days with a response time of about 7½ weeks. The new variety is suitable for growth in a temperature range of 15° C. to 25° C.
