Pod parent: CONTACT HIGH (Michaels 2013 introduction registered in 2012) M-ML 51" SEV 6˝" cool true medium pink 4.2:1 Spider that sports 2-3 lateral branches on sturdy scapes and 24-38 buds. Unlike its 3 other keeper seedlings, it is very pod fertile and has been a go-to parent in my garden several years, especially to add height. While I've produced numerous tall seedlings, very few stand up to the viscious winds here where I can't grow sunflowers that are over 3' tall, but CONTACT HIGH doesn't even lean. Has good pollen, too. Makes narrowish fans. Seedling FDSKN-14. (FLUID DYNAMICS X SKINWALKER).
Pollen parent: EL3RD-1 (unregistered) 32” M Dor 8” or so (13” wingspan) yellow with a dusted rose eye on all tepals and a green throat. Selected in hot and dry 2016 because it was majorly curly and, hurray, it was just as curly in the much cooler and wetter of 2017. Bud count has only reached 11 so far, but I do suspect that will increase once the plant is established. Might be the curliest seedling in the garden to date. Rebloomed in 2017 and is being observed for possible future introduction. (EVERYTHING LOUDER X THIRD ACT).
