AUCTION IS FOR FIVE SEEDS OF THE CROSS OF THE BORN TO BE WILD X MR. BOJANGLES.
POD PARENT:
*BORN TO BE WILD (Pierce, G.) 8163-A (((Calling All Angles x Sue Brown) x Mountain Wildflower) x Fringy) SEV EM 32” 6.25” flower, 6 way branching, 35-40 buds. The perfect name for literally a perfect modern daylily, and “Oh My Heavens” a great parent!!! In 2008, I wanted to put a green edge all around the edges of Floyd Cove’s richly colored eyed daylilies. Of course I got the stuffed shirt lecture… and as you can see by this cross I put the lovely Fringy on our edged and eyed hems.
From six seed came four keepers, two dormant and two SEV. All were extremely pod fertile and began throwing winning offspring. I was going to introduce one of the dormant sibs but it looked too similar to BTBW to be released. Anyway, BORN TO BE WILD has all the modern criteria that are essential to be released as a Floyd Cove daylily. Low arching foliage, scape height and buds, color clarity, health, and a unique look, BTBW got it’s great fertility from the pod parent, and will accept any pollen you give her easily. This trait has been passed down to her future offspring, and they are dreamy. The base color of BORN TO BE WILD is a clean near white with a plum purple eye and a matching purple picottee, the picottee is then completely edged in chartreuse. There is also a bright green throat. Very easily fertile. Limited
POLLEN PARENT:
*MR BOJANGLES (Pierce G) 396 (Sweet Almond Mint x Mystic Image) x Tetra Waxen Splendor EMre SEV 37” 6.25” flower, 7 way branching, 45-50 buds.
What could be better that this photo – MR BOJANGLES! As I went through my photos of #396 I realized how photogenic he is, which made it hard to choose. I hope everyone out there gets this flower and I have it priced just for that. MR BOJANGLES is a huge breakthrough in color saturation and Green in Daylily flowers. I hate to let this one go and absolutely loved using him to make seed as again he is VERY pod Fertile. When he blooms for you, you will have essentially 3 colors, a cool orchid base, a green edge and eye, and a rich charcoal/purple eye on a fabulous scape!!! You owe it to yourself to try him in your garden. Easily fertile both ways.
