Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of Chrysanthemum plant named Giraffe is provided. The new cultivar was the result of a controlled breeding program wherein the Buffalo cultivar (non-patented in the United States) was pollinated by an unnamed seedling formed by crossing the Delta cultivar (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,815) by the BZN cultivar (non-patented in the United States). More specifically, the new cultivar forms attractive relatively large clear white single flowers having a yellow-green center (as illustrated). The inflorescence commonly exhibits two or three rows of petals. The response period of the flowers is approximately eight and one-half weeks. Resistance to white rust is exhibited. The new cultivar is particularly suited for use in the production of a cut single spray under greenhouse conditions.
