Abstract
A new variety of Chrysanthemum morifolium for greenhouse pot plant culture originated in England as a natural sport of Red Anne (unpatented) and distinguished by the much deeper red coloration of its blooms when compared to those of Red Anne. Otherwise the physiological characteristics of the new plant are very similar to those of its parent and the new plant enjoys the same advantages of growth, plant size and photoperiod response as the parent.
