Chasing Your Dreams
(Gossard, James) 2015 introduction
(Patrick Starfish) x (Emerald Starburst)
Diploid, 42" tall, Early Mid season, Dormant, Nocturnal, Fragrant, 7" bloom, 4-5 way branching, 16-22 buds. Rebloomer. Very good rust resistance. Northern Hardy.
Flowers of Chasing Your Dreams are dark maroon purple, with a feathered purple violet eye zone, with a very large green throat.
Chasing your Dreams is my number one daylily of this cross. Chasing your Dreams and Stargirl were the roundest of all the sibs. Both can be pushed to the round or narrow forms. For many years I disliked nocturnal daylilies because they start opening the night before and lose color by noon and close up by late afternoon. Living in the north we have cold nights, 50 degrees F sometimes. As a result flowers open poorly, the pattern daylilies seem to be the worst. I wanted a daylily that was perfect in the mornings after a cold night but yet take the high heat and still look good at 8 PM. Everyone said could not be done. However with this new line from Patrick Starfish and Emerald Starburst I got what I was looking for. Chasing your Dreams, Moneymaker, Batgirl and Stargirl are the first of many future generations which corrects for this problem in the north. Soon we will have broken patterns around the edges as a result of the eye zone becoming the edge, which can be the patterned part of the daylily. Zebra Power crossed to these are a good starting point. Because the substance and color saturation is so good in Chasing your dreams and Stargirl, it takes a very good broken pattern breeder to give you want you want. A super good parent for hybridizing large patterned daylilies.
