Variety traits

Chrysanthemum Inflorescence

Chrysanthemum L.

The chrysanthemum inflorescence is a capitulum, classified by diameter, structural type, and its arrangement on the shoot. These parameters are defining traits in breeding and in distinctness, uniformity, and stability (DUS) testing methodologies.

In the reference 776 varieties crop Chrysanthemum, where this is mentioned in the description.

Chrysanthemum inflorescences are categorized by diameter into large-flowered (10–25 cm), medium-flowered (10–14 cm), and small-flowered (less than 10 cm). Based on shape, they are distinguished as simple daisy-like, double, anemone-like, globular, quill, and pompon types. Another important breeding trait is the arrangement of inflorescences on the shoot, which is evaluated on a point scale depending on their density and visibility within the plant structure.

Cultivation technology depends directly on the characteristics of the inflorescence. For large-flowered varieties, shaping the plant by thinning the number of buds is critical, whereas for small-flowered varieties, pinching is a priority to stimulate branching. The size and shape of the inflorescence determine the market purpose of the variety, whether for commercial cut flowers, pot plants, or decorative landscaping.
