Abstract
A new and distinct Chrysanthemum cultivar named `Chalurido` is provided. The new cultivar is a mutation of the `Chalecat` cultivar (U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 08/273,998, filed Jul. 12, 1994). Attractive large double incurved blossoms of the pompon type are formed that are Venetian violet on the inner ray floret surfaces and silvery lavender on the outer ray floret surfaces. The blossoms are long lasting and commonly keep their form for approximately three weeks on the plant and more than four weeks in a vase. The response period of the flowers is approximately nine weeks. Recurrent profuse flower production throughout the year is possible. The plant possesses strong thin stems, forms dark green glossy leaves, and commonly assumes a height of approximately 45 to 50 cm. The new cultivar is particularly suited for use in the production of a decorative pot Chrysanthemum that grows well single stem or disbudded. No growth regulator is necessary to achieve the short to medium plant height.
