Handa) Abstract To diversify flower color and growth habit of marguerite (Argyranthemum frutescens), intergeneric crossing was carried out using marguerite as the seed parent and annual chrysanthemum (Glebionis carinatum) or crown daisy (G. coronaria) as the pollen parent. After cross-pollination, seedlings were successfully obtained by applying ovule culture. Ovule culture-derived plants showed novel characteristics in flower shape and color (orange, reddish brown, or wisteria pink) that are not observed in marguerite. Some also showed novel flowering habits such as perpetual flowering. The results indicate that these ovule culture-derived plants were intergeneric hybrids and that the hybrids obtained in the present study may be useful for further breeding of marguerite, especially for introducing valuable characteristics such as a wide range of flower color. Key words: Argyranthemum, Glebionis, intergeneric hybridization, ovule culture. Marguerite (Argyranthemum frutescens) is a perennial germplasm for the breeding of marguerite, but most of plant native to the Canary Islands, Spain (Bramwell et them have white flowers and diversity in flower color and al. 2001) and Madeira, Portugal (Press et al.

  • Mums and Daisies: Chrysanthemum
    HortFact—50.11 06 Horticulture Department Kentucky Garden Flowers Mums and Daisies Chrysanthemum Robert Anderson, Extension Floriculture Specialist Chrysanthemums were one of the first ornamental plants to be domesticated more than 2000 years ago. The common chrysanthemum is native to Asia and they were used for gardens in China and Japan. Most current plants do not look like their native counterparts because of the breeding and selection that humans have competed over the centuries. Thus, there are many scientific names and confusing groups that are not clear to most gardeners. This publication discusses Chrysanthemum in the broad sense. Painted Daisy, Pyrethrum - Chrysanthemum coccineum, (Tanacetum coccineum) Flower Color Height Season Pests Uses Propagation red, pink, salmon 12"- 24" early summer aphids border, cut seed, cuttings, division Performance - Painted Daisy is a cool season perennial that may not survive the long hot Kentucky summer. In the north, plants are planted in full sun, but partial shade would be better here. Varieties - 'Evenglow', 'James Kelway', 'Robinson's Hybrids'. Marguerite Daisy, Boston Daisy, Cobbitty DaisiesTM – Chrysanthemum frutescens, (Argyranthemum frutescens) Flower Color Height Season Pests Uses Propagation yellow, white, pink 8"- 24" spring, summer few bedding, borders, containers cuttings Performance - Boston and Marguerite daisy have the classic daisy flower that U.S. consumers love. They have been used as bedding and container plants for many years. In the early 1990’s a group of new selections of these daisies were added to the product mix of garden centers. These daisies were somewhat smaller but produced many flowers in the spring and fall. Breeding and selection continues to produce new types.
