CROSS :( Randy Stephens x Bites Like a Thousand Teeth) x Twilight Ballad
(this red seedling has been registered as Molten Clouds, pending AHS publication)
Pod parent first, pollen parent second per AHS guidelines
This auction contains : 5 seeds plus nice bonus seeds of same cross
***************
HYBRIDIZING GOAL for this cross: This seedling RSBlatt( now named Molten Clouds) , was fast tracked this year. The scape rivals Women Seeking Men.. which is a BIG deal to me. Fertility was sky high. I will have a lot of seeds to share from my best seedlings and cultivars crossed onto her. I took this seedling many different ways.. including teeth, due to the genetic background. This may become a very important hybridizing parent for me. I was able to make seeds with a stunning purple intro of mine... Want the scape and genetics from the seedling to bolster the bloom power of Ballad. This could be amazing in the right combination!! I am starting my seeds :) Enjoy!

****In previous years, I loved to describe in detail reasons I choose to use a cultivar for hybridizing. With the huge amount of auctions I am listing these past few years, I have had to cut back on details, and will list hybridizing goals instead. Hoping to streamline auction listings. Please feel free to contact me through the auction for extra questions you may have. I am always happy to answer them :)

ABOUT US:I still work full time, so this labor of love is performed on my days off, with the able assistance of hubby Dave and maybe a young garden helper. We have approximately 4 acres around our house under cultivation. We use these daylilies for hybridizing. We love to keep current on other hybridizers' new introductions to augment our hybridizing program. I hybridize for myself first...then LOVE sharing. You will bloom crosses that I have created for myself. Hopefully you will see the promise of these crosses too . :) Many involve my own seedlings. They rarely let me down. ENJOY!!!

THANK YOU!!!WE sincerely wish to thank those who have supported our auctions in the past and the new supporters we meet.We hope you bloom beautiful seedlings!
