Chrysanthemum plant--Myway cultivar

Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named Myway is provided. The new cultivar was the result of a mutation induced by controlled irradiation with x-rays and can be readily distinguished from the parent Broadway cultivar (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,737). More specifically, the new cultivar forms attractive yellow single flowers wherein the disc comprises a large dark brown central spot surrounded by a green border. The response period of the flowers is approximately nine weeks. The new cultivar is particularly suited for use in the production of a cut single spray under greenhouse conditions.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named Myway, substantially as herein shown and described, which: (a) exhibits attractive single flowers having an overall diameter of approximately 60 to 70 mm. wherein the ray florets are yellow and the disc comprises a large dark brown central spot surrounded by a green border,   (b) exhibits a flower response period of approximately nine weeks,   (c) forms dark green foliage, and   (d) has the ability to produce flowers of commercially acceptable quality throughout the year in a cut mum production program.
