Pod parent: SHOTTBIG17-24 (unregistered) This tailored 8” pink with deeper eye always displayed a double chevron in 2017, its first year of bloom and even showed pattern in the extreme heat of 2018. The base color was also a more saturated pink in 2018 than in its first year of bloom. A mere 27” tall but I suspect taller scapes once it establishes itself in the selected bed. Went from 8 buds in 2017 to 12 in 2018 after being moved. [STARSHOT X (TOOKY TOOKY BIRD x INSTANT GRAFFITI)].
Pollen parent: DMAB6TTBBSO83-22 (unregistered) Gotta admit that I fell in love with the color and form and pattern of this new-for-2017 seedling. Clear medium pink with a red violet eye broken by multiple chevrons, the Spider ratio of the 12 blooms ranged from 3.857 (boo hoo…) to 5.4:1 (yippee!). Cascading, recurving blooms were 8” with a 13” wingspan. Promptly moved to the selected bed. Still had 12 buds in 2018 on 30” scapes, but, since almost everything was remarkably shorter in 2018 (flooding in 2017 followed by excessive heat and drought in 2018?), I expect it to get taller in future years. One of the few seedlings that showed patterning in the hottest part of the 2018 summer. {(Dallas Star seedling x MALACHITE PRISM) x ADDERBOLT] x BANSHEE CRADLESONG] X (TOOKY TOOKY BIRD x BANSHEE SONATA)}.
