These are my last seed offerings for the season. I wish everyone a speedy and safe passage through the winter months. Thank you, everyone!
Pod parent: MILITARY SCHOOL (Santa Lucia 2006) M 30" DOR 6" burgundy with repeating chevron eyezone, 2 branches and 20 buds. Pod parent of STRAWBERRY LEMONADE and ZEBRA POWER, pollen parent of FOREIGN LEGION, it is a consistent and instantaneous rebloomer in western NY. (SPANISH FANDANGO X seedling).
Pollen parent: WIZARD DELUXE (Michaels 2017 intro registered in 2016) 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 it’s 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. The name’s origin: “Then suddenly the wind changed and the balloon floated down into the heart of this noble city where I was instantaneously acclaimed Oz, the first Wizard Deluxe.” I have to admit that I was as astounded when I saw the maiden bloom as the inhabitants of Emerald City were when that balloon landed because I had absolutely no clue thered be patterns in the cross. Seedling DS228MPADDBCS-1 {[(Dallas Star Sdlg. #28 x Malachite Prism) x Adderbolt] X BANSHEE CRADLESONG}.
Note: Daylilies registered after November 1 are considered to be registrations for the following year.
Goals: Here there be patterns! Hoping for increased numbers of missing color chevrons on tall scapes with good bud counts and none of that slow to open and leaning scapes mom exhibits. Expecting colors to range from pink through purple shades but who knows, they might go off into yellow and orange even. Mostly Unusual Forms but a few Spiders are possible.
