Abstract

A new and distinct Charm Chrysanthemum cultivar is provided that is the result of a controlled breeding program. Attractive small daisy-like blossoms are formed in profusion in clusters having yellow-green disc florets and one row of white ray florets. The growth habit is short, bushy, very compact and well-branched with short internodes and yields a generally uniform and spherical overall plant. The foliage is small and dark green, and blends well with the yellow-green and white blossom coloration. The upper surface of the leaves possesses a margin that is light greyed-green in coloration. The response time is approximately eight weeks. The natural flowering time is late-October. When mature the blossoms emit yellow pollen. The plant grows well in pots, and possesses no particular susceptibility to disease and pests.
