WESTBOURNE BLACK CAT EYES

Double Fan (average in size)

Dark burgundy with glowing bluish halo and green throat.

Ht.26"/ 5.5" Bloom / 4+5 Way Branching / 22+ Buds / EM. / Reblooms / Sev. / Tet. / Fertile both ways.

For a darker bloom I think you will have your best results in a location out of direct sunlight. I have grown it in in a location that was dry a lot and got more sun then expected. That manifested as a very pretty plant that is my wifes'new favorite! (photos attached below from my garden last year).

I do really enjoy the blooms and look forward to seeing them closer to the dark burgundyas described when the bloom in their new slightly shadier and moister location next to my Crape Myrtle tree. However; please be aware, here in my Maryland gardens I cannot see howWESTBOURNE BLACK CAT EYES would ever get quite as dark and mysterious as the picture above from the WestbourneDaylily Patch website.

This auction is for an average size double fan. That said I will still select the fattest and fullest I have available. As plants go this produces divisions that are a bit smaller then larger daylilies. l will likely ship late April or early May. I will dig, divide and wash divisions after 4 to 6 inches of new growth has established and I know I will be sending the best specimen!

Shipping costs - Shipping in the U.S.A. Greater 48 will be $9.00... ALL OTHER SHIPPING will need to be determined by contacting me (before you bid!). I will quote you a cost for shipping. Add on plants will be $3.00 per fan if/when it applies like in combined shipping

PayPal is preferred but check payment is great too!
