Upgrade x Heavenly Way Big, 5 seeds
Following information from AHS database, or the breeder's website:
===========================================================================
Upgrade
(Gossard, James) 2008 introduction
(Purple Chameleon x tetra Starman's Quest)
Tetraploid 41" Scape, M, Dormant, emo, fr, 6" bloom, 3-4 way branching 18-22 buds. Fertile both ways. Rebloomer.
Very good rust resistance. Northern Hardy.
"Upgrade is a lavender purple which is spotted in purple. It has a green throat which goes into white, followed by a deeper purple eye zone. Flowers are reverse bicolor. Both the petals and sepals are rimmed in purple. A small white edge is seen also on both petals and sepals.This is a much improved Purple Chameleon, further more, I feel it is the best in its class of tetra Trahlyta and tetra Starman's Quest introductions. It is an extraordinary flower, one of the best I have ever done. In my garden, the photo shown is consistent. It has been a super hybridizing parent and a grand garden cultivar. Adds new tetra Trahlyta and tetra Starman's Quest genes to the Daylily pool, being 1/2 tetra Trahlyta"

Heavenly Way Big
(Gossard, 2013)
((Purple Starfish x (Pretty Desirable x Neon Flamingo)) x Tet. Skinwalker)
Tetraploid, height 38 in.(97 cm), bloom 14 in.(36 cm), season M, Rebloom, Dormant, Fragrant, 30 buds, 5 branches, Spider Ratio 5.10:1, Unusual Form Cascade,
Color: Maroon with a bluish purple eye zone and a very green throat.
"Flowers of Heavenly Way Big are maroon with a bluish purple eye zone and a very green throat. Heavenly Way Big is my super breeder daylily. Sets pods and pollen is extremely powerful setting on very hard to use pod parents. A very good rebloomer. Starts mid season and reblooms into very late season. Has who's who of converted diploid spiders in pedigree, a few are tetra Kindly Light, tetra Skinwalker, tetra Dallas Star, tetra Green Widow, tetra Open Hearth and tetra Rainbow spangles. Also important is Waiting in the wings which had Snooks Harville's seedling SC102 in it, which was an incredibly beautiful and twisted red true spider and a hard dormant. It should also be noted that all parents in my pedigree, (Purple Starfish x (Pretty Desirable x Neon Flamingo)) x Tetra Skinwalker are dormant. Very important if you are hybridizing for hardy spiders. I remember the year that I planted the seedlings which produced heavenly Way Big. I planted seedlings in late July, we had a bad winter and 98% of those seedlings died, from all types of crosses. Heavenly Way Big was a survivor. I lined it out in November last year and laughed at our winters. Its a great daylily."
