Spacecoast Fire Dragon has been nicknamed "Red #1" in the garden because, since its first bloom, it has been the favorite red in the garden. This flower is INSTANTLY recognizable in the garden. There is red and then there is RED. This flower just punches you in the face with its blazing intensity and fire. Background genetics carry Tet. Rose F. Kennedy from its pollen parent, Spacecoast Rose Queen, another recent introduction. This brings new genetics into the round reds/edges category. It is very pod and pollen fertile, and its kids tend to be much larger. It is a Fantastic parent, and many future introductions will come from this fantastic red.
ONE OF MY FAVORITE NEW FLOWERS.
POLLEN PARENT DESCRIPTION:
Running To You
(Gossard, James) 2019 introduction
(The Ultimate Sacrifice) x (tetra Sharon's Delight)
Seedling number 208-15

Running to You is one of the Best reds I have ever seen, and one of the most heavily substanced daylilies in my garden. The red does NOT fade or wilt in the heat, and the substance is almost wax-like ,it is so thick. Out of a tetrploid conversion of Richard Norris' Sharon's Delight, this daylily takes Red genetics to a whole new level. As I've said before, typically new conversions are difficult to use because not all the pollen might have converted, or the plant may over convert, or revert. By using plants that are one generation from the tetraploid conversion, a hybridizer reaps all the benefits of the conversion without the headache and heartbreak of one. Cross this with Precious Kiss or Heavenly Emerald Rose for some outstanding kids.
