We have bred new varieties of marguerite and registered 35 cultivars for both cut and pot flowers. For cut flowers, such as 'Southern Elegance White' that has a flower head type similar to 'Zairai-Shiro', 11 cultivars were bred. For pot flowers, such as 'Sunday Ripple', that are heat resistant and flower continuously from autumn, 24 cultivars were bred. To diversify the flower color and scent of marguerite, intergeneric crossing was performed using marguerite as the seed parent and annual chrysanthemum as the pollen parent. We bred new intergeneric hybrids such as 'Peach Queen' with orange ray florets and 'Fuurenka' with a new floral scent.
