Flowers of Heavenly New Frontiers are pink with lighter watermark and gold toothy edge and green throat. One of the first flowers i introduced that was ground breaking in its time was Heavenly Beginnings. Today the grandkids such as Heavenly New Frontiers have arrived. Like H beginnings was the beginning of my toothy program, H New Frontiers is going to take us into the unexplored regions, the New Frontier. First of all it is the first known Pentaploid. I expect many others to exist, but first registed as. It is extremely pod and pollen fertile. Its pollen sets on 3.5x, 4x,5x ploidy with ease. It and Heavenly Way Big are the most powerful pollens I have ever used in a daylily. The substance is much better than normal tetraploids. Below is a few photos of its different forms. I have even seen color changing and doubling in it. I believe this to be the most important daylily of the Decade. It is an outstanding garden plant as well. Ok, why the high cost. After purchasing a flow Cytometer from BD Accuri C6, i began testing ploidys. I was wondering why many of the new plants I was purchasing from top breeders were so hard to use as pod parents. Below is just a little of the journey. The more i tested, the more questions i have. Im at the point I need to do chromosome karyotyping, the same system used by all the main cancer research labs. It is around $34,000 for a basic system with setup and 3 days of training. ....$700 SF. Sold Out
VERDANT GLOW (Pierce G) 2269-A (Violet Becomes You x Tetra Rose F. Kennedy) EMre SEV/DOR emo 28”, 6.5” flower, 4 way branching, 25 buds, fragrant.
Big green throat, ruffled green edge and mainly green sepals… These new Full Forms with loads of green are the most exciting new daylilies I have ever done. The intense Tetraploid Green says HELLO! in a way I’ve never seen before. VERDANT GLOW is one of the best examples of this new look into the endless possibilities of our modern daylily. In VERDANT GLOW you get a daylily that is nearly flawless in green and purple, or purple and green. Twice the substance of a regular Tetraploid. Easily fertile both ways and a hybridizers dream. Should grow well anywhere in the country
