Thank you so very much for checking out the 2015 Daredevil Daylily Seeds offerings!
Pod parent: NINA NINA WOLVERINA (Michaels 2010 introduction registered in 2009) M 34" DOR 7" red violet with grayed violet eye over creamy yellow to lime throat Variable Crispate. Averaging 3-4 laterals and 35-43 buds, it's thrown some wowser seedlings for me, color, shape and plant habit wise, especially budcount. A very pod and pollen fertile diploid that first bloomed in 2005, it makes small to medium fans. Named to honor my most wonderful, inspirational, generous and, most importantly, hilarious friend, Nina Lapierre. My best parent for increasing bud count and, in fact, I have a great seedling of NNW X HEAVENLY MISTER TWISTER that I've chosen to Not register because it has Too Many buds even when heavily podded year after year. Plans are to introduce a very well budded but wider branched NNW X SCISSORHANDS kid, however, in 2015. Pod parent of COUNTERWISE WINE and STARFISH ENTERPRISE (DALLAS STAR Seedling 2-12 X PURPLE CORN DANCER).
Pollen parent: BUZZQUILL (Michaels 2014 introduction registered in 2013) was my favorite diploid 2009 selection. It has quilling, it has curling, it has wonderful light lavender rose coloring with prominent veins and a light blue violet eye and that eye is narrowly etched in fuchsia. The 42” upright scapes produce 2-3 lateral branches and 18-34 buds. DOR. Bloom size is 7-8" depending on recurve and it's very fertile either way. Because it's so fat, I'm using it mostly for pattern breeding and saw several patterned kids from it in 2013 and this summer, but the form is nonetheless great so I'm taking it that way, too. A diploid Crispate Unusual Form that produces narrow to average sized fans.. (FLUID DYNAMICS X ROSEMARY WHITACRE).
