Abstract
A lemon double freesia (Freesia hybrida Hort.), 'Shiny Lemon' was developed from a cross between the domestic breeding lines ('Golden Crown' and 'White Wings') and 'Yvonne' followed by seedling and line selections at the National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science, Rural Development Administration (RDA) in 2007. Growth and flowering characteristic tests were conducted from 2003 to 2006. 'Shiny Lemon' has large double type flower with lemon color (RHS Y13D). It has multiple florets, good flower shape, and upright leaves and stalks. The average cut flower yield of 'Shiny Lemon' was 7.1 cuttings per plant in the greenhouse from 2005 to 2007. Additionally, it has good production of cormlets and vigorous growth. 'Shiny Lemon' could be cultured under greenhouse conditions in Korea.
