PRECIOUS CANDY (Stamile, 2012) x Roman Steel ( Pierce, G. '15) – 6 sds
PRECIOUS CANDY (Stamile,P.) TET 3143-A (Rock Solid x Zahadoom) 30” ERe. emo. Ev. 5” x 2 ½” x 2 ¼”. 5-way branching (3 laterals + terminal “Y”). 30-35 buds.
ROCK SOLID and ZAHADOOM! What a magical cross giving me THE BAND PLAYED ON, PRECIOUS CANDY and SHERRY CANDY. I wish all my crosses could be as productive as this one. PRECIOUS CANDY is a gorgeous lavender with a blue lavender eye and edge bordered in silver or gold. ZAHADOOM seems to be able to throw everything possible in an eye from blue to black and everything in between. I crossed PRECIOUS CANDY and BIT OF BLUE and got one of my prime breeders, 5201, which like PRECIOUS CANDY has multiple edge colors. Great plant habit and a wonderful addition to the Candy family. Easily fertile both ways
Roman Steel (Pierce G.) 1451-B (Cutting Loose X Magical Marrakech) X Sib to Buffalo Thunder) TET SEV EE 30” 7” flower, 6 way branching, 35-40 buds.
This is easily one of my finest daylilies, well admired by Matthew Kaskell along with Bluegrass Shadows, which at the time were side by side when Matthew visited. I have bloomed well over a hundred thousand purple seedlings and rarely does a daylily have the presence of Roman Steel. I cannot tell you everything in words just that she sings with style!!! The rich purple petals have dark purple veining throughout and are outlined in a strong ruffled white edge. Inside the edge is a bluish silver shadow that matches the large watermark above the green throat. Honestly Roman Steel looks 3-D to me and is one of the heaviest flowers I grow. I have not been able to truly capture the lure of this daylily in a photo, though every pic could be a cover shot; and I will not use magnifying lenses! Anyway, this flower takes my breath away and I will be continuing to use Roman Steel for some time. Easily fertile both ways, with great success. Very heavy substance. This is a daylily that I would like to see win the Stout Medal someday. Easily fertile both ways
