A new and distinct Chrysanthemum cultivar named `Chalurido` is provided. The new cultivar is a mutation of the `Chalecat` cultivar (U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 08/273,998, filed Jul. 12, 1994). Attractive large double incurved blossoms of the pompon type are formed that are Venetian violet on the inner ray floret surfaces and silvery lavender on the outer ray floret surfaces. The blossoms are long lasting and commonly keep their form for approximately three weeks on the plant and more than four weeks in a vase.
