Yep... had a little mishap.. so let's have some FUN!
AWESOME Seeds CHEAPER than Kmart
(7 seeds for $2.45)
Sorry USA & PAYPAL or VENMO only on this One
As I grabbed for my Cheezies Puffs I toppled 3 trays of seeds and so we have mix of 3 great premium diploid crosses ahhhhhhhh!
The Pod Parent is either Lavender Blue Baby (A classic for lavenders and blues hybridized by Jack Carpenter in 1996 and one of the parents of Brad Best's Bearded Michael's Sword) or Aniakchak (A Mahieu classic with height, great color, many blooms, buds, scapes, and branching galore). The pollen parent is one of 2 awesome new intros: Either Stay Safe and Be Happy (Amazing new Kulpa/Balash 2020 color changer) or Threadfall (Amazing new 2019 bearded from Mike Derrow, named for the burning ash in the Dragon Riders of Pern, and that can throw bearded kids even on an outcross).
So, what we ARE Looking for here are color changers, bearded, and
possibly color changing bearded seedlings!!!!
Ok.. so bearded and color changer seeds get expensive. So in celebration of my clumsiness I am offering 7 seeds as described above for the cost of a bag of Cheezies Puffs. Let's call it $2.45.
Shipping is 0.55 for a regular stamp, or $3 if you want priority mail and tracking. Totally up to you, but there is no insurance on the stamp so if gets lost I will refund your $2.45 but not the 0.55 postage. If you are buying other seeds from me these can be bundled with the others under the shipping agreement of the other items and there will be no additional postage
One (1) set per person please...Trying to spread the love for bearded and color changing diploids here. I will continue to re-list while supplies last. Hoping to buy at least 50 bags of cheezies Puffs to get me thru 2020! Don't let me down! LOL
Aniakchak – diploid - Family Portrait × Loch Ness Monster... Registered at nearly 4 feet tall with large blossoms with 5-way branching and a bud count of 46. Blooms for more than 8 weeks in my garden.
Stay Healthy Have Fun - diploid - A 2020 color changer intro that consistently has 2 or 3 extra petaloids. Just beautiful. Large flowers up to 6".
Threadfall - diploid - A 2019 intro. Michael's Sword x Texas Feathered Fancy...height 25 in., bloom 4.5 in., season EM, Semi-evergreen, 24 buds, 4 branches, sculpted cristate, medium violet-red self, with patterned sepals plus a small green throat. This plant begins blooming in late June and continues into August on medium height scapes with arching blue-green foliage underneath. It is very pod fertile here and the pollen is extremely fertile. In 5 years I have never seen a bloom that did NOT have cristate tissue in the throat, whether grown outdoors or in the greenhouse though of course, your results may differ. It produces many cristate seedlings when crossed to cristate partners but its true value is in its ability to produce cristate seedlings in outcrosses. Most of the resulting seedlings have good pollen, too.
GOAL: Hoping for tall color changers, bearded and color changing bearded seedlings.
I apologize if my photos do not reflect the true beauty of the parents in this cross. I am using my own photos from my garden without any color manipulation. This way you know I have the plants and that they have bloomed for me. I encourage people to search the Internet for hybridizer photos as well to see blooms at their very best.
All seeds are from 2020 and were grown by me in my Newaygo MI garden which is zone 5. Seeds are dried for 3 days and then refrigerated. Any cross I am selling here I am also planting myself. I promised myself I would not plant more than 5,000 seeds. As a result, I am offering a portion of many of my crosses for those interested.
This is a hobby for me and not a business. PAYPAY or Venmo ONLY on this offer.
Thanks for looking and remember seedlings may or may not resemble one or both parents in the cross. Hybrid daylilies do not breed true and that is what makes it fun and exciting to anticipate something new and amazingly beautiful.
GOOD LUCK!
