Auction is for 5 seeds from the cross of DRAGONFLY DAWN X CHARLOTTE'S DESIRE.
POD PARENT:
DRAGONFLY DAWN (Jane Trimmer) Tetraploid (Solar Blue Angel X Jamaican Love) 36" E. Re Ev. 7 ½"This cultivar starts out early with first blooms as a light creme yellow with an eye pattern of blue and raspberry. About a week into the season the base color pales out closer to creme with a rainbow eye pattern of lavender, blue, raspberry and yellow. DRAGONFLY DAWN is the most fertile cultivar I have ever used! It set every pollen I used and Dan and I set 2000 seed on it last year as a pod parent. Dan believes it is one of our most important parents ever! The first seedlings from it were extraordinary and from the first dozen and a half seedlings that bloomed, we kept half of them. Dan’s two best patterned seedlings last year were from a cross of DRAGONFLY DAWN X TET TEXAS KALEIDOSCOPE. They both had a excellent eye patterns! DRAGONFLY DAWN did wonderfully in Ohio last winter. It has 25 buds and 3 laterals.
DRAGONFLY DAWN IS ANOTHER OLDER ONE THAT WE HAVE RETAINED BECAUSE IT IS A TREMENDOUS PARENT.
POLLEN PARENT:
*CHARLOTTE’S DESIRE (Pierce G.) 3292-H (Venetian Pools x (Stenciled Infusion x Stenciled De Fresco)) TET, EV, EMre, 37” high, 6.25” flower, 6 way branching, 40 buds.
Now this is my kind of flower/pattern/daylily. This gorgeous pattern with full form wide petals that lay out flat and are ruffled and edged in dark Mulberry purple. CHARLOTTE’S DESIRE’s rich colors are patterned in bold chevron markings, which are repeated over and over. The contrast of the dark makings, light base and large green throat will stop you in your tracks. Fertile both ways. This is a pattern must have for 2017! You will love it.
