Pod parent: QUILLSEEKER (Michaels 2013 introduction registered in 2012) E 39" DOR 6½-7" consistently quilled Crispate Unusual Form with curled petals in rosy peach with a red violet eye over a yellow to green throat. Among the earliest bloomers here, it sports 2 laterals and 20-29 buds. Rebloomed very well here in rainy 2014 with surprisingly huge blooms measuring 10½” across. Fertile both ways, it makes small fans. I’m seeing some lovely lavender and hot pink quilled kids from it. Seedling SLGMJCST4AL-1 {[SCRAMBLED LEGS x (MISS JESSIE x CERULEAN STAR)] X FOR ALGERNON}.
Pollen parent: WDBLPBLCTF-2 (unregistered) EM 37” DOR 8½” (12¾” - 13½” wingspan) A 2018 introduction was planned (flooding has pushed that back) for this grayish brown (a touch more brown than taupe) cascading spider with deeper chevron eye and yellow midribs over a green throat. The spider ratio has a range of 5:1—6.4:1, averaging 5.6:1. And early morning opener, the blooms acquire significant purple tones by the end of very hot days. {WILDEST DREAMS X [(BLACK PASSION x BANSHEE LOVE CALL) x TENNESSEE FLYCATCHER]}.
Goals: Big and early Unusual Forms, I’d guess most in shades of purple but there could be a brown or two.
