Seedling number hvelsrevvftt1
Tetraploid 25" Mid Late Season Dormant emo fr 8" 3-4 way branching 15-18 buds. Fertile both ways. Rebloomer. Very good rust resistance. Northern Hardy.
Flowers are burgundy red with a lighter eye and a yellow throat. The petals have a gold to white edge which is covered with teeth.
When introducing a flower, I look at three things- 1. Is the flower an improvement over the previous generation, 2. Is it a good grower and addition to the world of daylilies, 3. Is it distinctive in some way. The minute I saw Razor Beast I was struck by how distinctive this daylily is. Have you ever seen a toothy edge that wide on that narrow of a petal? Not only do the teeth really stand out, but they change in color from white near the throat to gold near the tips of the petals. Some toothies only have teeth on the petals, while this one has teeth on petals and sepals- and not only teeth, but two colors of teeth! If you like distinctive toothy flowers, this one takes it to a whole new level.....$200 SF.
