Variety traits
Rhizome — Ajania, gold and silver chrysanthemum, iso-giko, iso-giku
Chrysanthemum pacificum Nakai
Ajania pacifica is a rhizomatous perennial that uses underground shoots for vegetative spread and the formation of dense clumps up to 90 cm in diameter.
In the reference 3 varieties crop Pacific chrysanthemum, where this is mentioned in the description.
The presence of rhizomes allows the plant to gradually increase the area it occupies, making it an effective groundcover perennial. From an agrotechnical perspective, this biological feature ensures the natural expansion of plantings, with the growth rate characterized as moderate.
Specific quantitative indicators or methods for evaluating the rhizome as a selection trait for this species have not been established, as the primary focus in trial documentation is on the morphology of the aerial part. In cases of excessive planting density, it is recommended to divide the clumps to control vegetative cover.
