Abstract

A new variety of Dendranthema grandiflora (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) for the outdoor garden and for spring flowering greenhouse pot plant culture, characterized by long-lasting blooms which are also early opening, 3.5 cm in diameter, full pompon, white with light yellow center, and resistant to pinking at lower temperatures, on plants of an informally mounded plant habit with small to medium sized leaves on stiff stems.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct Dendranthema grandiflora cultivar substantially as shown and described herein, and particularly characterized by early opening florets, which are 3.5 cm in diameter, full, white with yellow center florets fading to white, the florets also being resistant to low temperature "pinking" with good lasting quality developing into informal mounds with clean foliage on stiff stems.
