Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named Jannel is provided. The new cultivar was the result of a controlled breeding program wherein the Green Peas cultivar (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,735) was pollinated by the Keystone cultivar (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,946). More specifically, the new cultivar forms attractive cream white flowers of the pompon type which have a green center (as illustrated). The inflorescence tends to be pyramidal in configuration. The response period of the flowers is approximately nine weeks. Reduced susceptibility to leaf miner is exhibited. The new cultivar is particularly suited for use in the production of a cut decorative spray under greenhouse conditions.
