Pod parent: INSTANT GRAFFITI (Michaels 2015 intro registered in 2014) Mre 35" DOR 7 This rose purple with darker eye outlined in pale pink has lighter tepal edges and was moved to the selected bed in August, 2011 after 2 years of blooming in the seedling bed. Of primary importance to me is that it maintained its color pattern during the 2 hottest summers we've experienced, unlike most patterned cultivars I grow, though I'd still classify it as a cold dominant pattern. Nearly every bloom had comparable patterning in our cooler 2013. With stout scapes with 2 laterals and up to 30 buds, it has rebloomed every year since its first, producing 3 sets of scapes in 2013. A true game changer for me, every diploid seedling I selected in 2013 was patterned and the majority came from this seedling. Leaving its mark on its kids, it passes patterns, good scapes and rebloom to many of its kids. Influencing both etched eyes and dollop-of-color patterns, it is very pod fertile and has stupendously strong pollen, too. I regret is that it's so fat, but I've selected some thrillingly skinny near-spiders as well as quite round from its pollen. I also regret that it's a tad slow to increase, instead preferring to make chunky fans that produce 2 scapes each, sometimes 3, in one season. Pollen parent of the seedling with the best pattern in the patch in 2015 (TTBIG-17). Seedling CWLWHTOG-2 [(CHIN WHISKERS x LITTLE WITCHING HOUR) X TOMORROW'S SONG].
Pollen parent: DS228MPADDBCS-1 (unregistered) Mre 48 DOR this 8 4.208:1 Spider has a 12 wingspan and a 2017 introduction is definitely, positively, absolutely planned. Naples yellow with a purple feathered eyezone that often has a blue sheen, it displays missing color broken eyezones throughout much of its bloom cycle. I wish it always had them, but the feathering of the eyezone maintains interest even when its too warm for patterning. Despite a lack of rain in July and most of August, 3 sets of strong scapes were sent up in 2015. The first had a terminal Y with 1-2 laterals and 18-23 buds. Each successive set of scapes had fewer buds and were about a foot shorter. The final scapes were 30 tall with only 8 buds but were a welcome sight in late August and I set pods on practically every one of those blooms. EMO and EXT, it is very pod and pollen fertile. {[(Dallas Star Sdlg. #28 x Malachite Prism) x Adderbolt] X BANSHEE CRADLESONG}.
