Belle of Ashwood x Heir to the Throne 8 seeds

BELLE OF ASHWOOD
seedling T01-32 (CHANCE ENCOUNTER X WILLIAM AUSTIN NORRIS) X PEARL HARBOR 5.5" DOR 28" EM RE 2008 note: BELLE OF ASHWOOD was just rewarded an HM from the AHS with the third highest vote total of region 2 introductions. This may be our best all around plant yet. It is the clearest and smoothest of pinks with an exciting gold edge. The day does not phase BELLE OF ASHWOOD as she looks exactly the same at dusk after a 95 degree day or a rain. Heavy budding and rebloom keep the show going for several months. The babies are marvelous and show some of the best off season foliage in the garden. Fertile both ways and one of our for most important breeders the last several years.

note: The 2005 season has clearly demonstrated that this is going to be one of our most important breeders, period. Of the characteristics that BOA brings to the table, being able to impart instant rebloom in its kids is the one we most value. In the difficult ‘05 season perhaps 40% of the babies showed instant rebloom in the form of two scapes per fan. The scapes came on in just the way that we would wish. The second fan appears when the first is part way through the bloom cycle. BOA may (should) prove to be very valuable in extending the bloom season in the north. In the south I would expect it will be a very long blooming cultivar. We have now bloomed babies from BOA crossed to purples, eyed/edged cultivars and, of course, pinks with gold edges. There have been very good results in each category. As I write this there are a dozen plants of BOA in the greenhouse waiting to be crossed to everything in sight. Such is the breeding ability of BELLE OF ASHWOOD.

Heir to the Throne
(Forsyth Comanche x Eternal Glory) 29”, 5.75”, Dormant, M, 27 buds with 3 way branching, fertile both ways.
Heir to the Throne is in a class by itself. Its many attributes include hardiness, flat opening, excellent scape with well spaced buds, consistent flowers, fragrant, and an outstanding hybridizing plant. As a hybridizing plant, Heir to the Throne has produced 8 new introductions for us in a variety of colors for many years. The edges on the kids are huge and many have the same hard dormant plant habit that we love about Heir to the Throne.

My Notes: Fantastic plant habits and a scape that all plants should have, only second to (S.W. Winter Wonderland)
