AUCTION IS� FOR 5 SEEDS FROM GREAT WHITE DOVE X SPACECOAST WHITE FROSTING

POD PARENT:

�

Geat White Dove� (Pierce G.)� TET 828-A� (Shamrock Dew x Fancy Lace)� 38�� 6.5� flower, EV emo EEre,� 9-way branching with 50 buds.� Arching Foliage. Fragrant. �

No one has had the success with cutting edge whites as Floyd Cove and to be honest even though I have made hundreds and hundreds of white seed, the ability to IMPROVE on our existing lines has been futile until Great White Dove.

From two flowers I so adored, the big wide face of Fancy Lace, and the green in Shamrock Dew, I was able to make approx. 50 seed from this cross.� This is a lot since the whole Dream Runner line is so tough to use.� There were bigger blooms, greener, more ruffled etc. but none of them had all the traits I was looking for until Great White Dove bloomed, and so she tamed everything else in the cross.� With over 50 flowers towering above the arching foliage, the blooms never a hang-up even though the flowers are adorned with the biggest ruffles and angel wings of any white in the nursery.� Even the sepals are ruffled.

Great White Dove is a beacon of modern perfection.� The shade of white though having a �% tint of lemon is not only THE WHITEST of all our introductions, but certainly the most ruffled, and has the heaviest substance too.� Furthermore at 5pm even after the sprinklers have been on, the blooms appear almost untouched.� Fertile both ways, and an easy pod parent with some shade, Great White Dove will be one of those daylilies that will have that modern look even a decade from now!.� Like Shamrock Dew this flower loves spring and cool nights, and is wide open at dawn when she blooms here in March.� Photo taken at dawn in March
