Abstract
A new and distinct Chrysanthemum cultivar named `Chagira` is provided. The new cultivar was the result of a controlled breeding program. Attractive small light pink daisy blossoms having a yellow center are formed in profusion as a round ball which surrounds the plant. Flower production is carried out on a natural production cycle. The plant possesses strong stems, forms attractive leaves, and commonly assumes a height of approximately 25 to 30 cm. The blossom coloration contrasts nicely with the dark green foliage. The new cultivar is particularly well suited for use in the production of a decorative pot Chrysanthemum. No growth regulator is necessary to achieve the very short plant height.
