Abstract
A new gerbera (Gerbera hybrid Hort.) 'Azalin' was bred by the National Institute of Horticultural & Herbal Science in 2009. 'Basic' and 'Rosabella' which had pink color and semi-double flower were crossed in 2006. After investigation of the characteristics for four years (from 2006 to 2009), it was selected specially for the use of cut flower. The 'Azalin' had brilliant pink color (RHS RP68A) with green disc center. The flower was semi-double and 10.6 cm in diameter. It had a thick peduncle of which upper and lower width were 3.7 mm and 5.5 mm, respectively. The average days to first flowering of 'Azalin', 88.5 days, was approximately 8.7 days earlier than the control cultivar. And its average yield, 55.8 stems per plant, was also 7.4 stems per plants more than the control cultivar.
