AUCTION IS FOR 5 SEEDS FROM THE CROSS OF QUOTING HEMINGWAY X TAVARES KING OF KINGS.
POD PARENT DESCRIPTION:
*QUOTING HEMINGWAY (Pierce G.) 3195-A (Bluegrass Shadows x Sdlg) SEV, EE, 40” tall, 7.5” flower, 7 way branching, 55-60 buds Multi Rebloom/Everbloomer.
Bluegrass Shadows has been a tremendous parent for me and I got use her again heavily this year. QUOTING HEMMINGWAY is thus far one of my best daylilies for breeding. The very wide ruffled white to yellow/white edge is absolutely amazing. There is a large bluish/silver watermark that is quite refreshing and this bluish color sparkles around the petals inside the big ruffles. The thick edge reminds me of sparkling clouds and the whole impression is of a holiday in Key West, hence the name – QUOTING HEMMINGWAY. This flower absolutely wows me and blooms nonstop. A strong and easy grower I hope you enjoy growing QUOTING HEMMINGWAY as much as I have. I will continue to use this daylily for years to come. Fertile both ways. Very Limited
POLLEN PARENT DESCRIPTION:
TAVARES KING OF KINGS
TET (Dark Moon Rising X Tet Emerald Starburst) X Midnight Castle
7.5” flower, 4-way branching, 23 buds on a 30” scape. EM, RE, SEV.
This daylily is the best of the Tet Emerald Starburst type of breeding that I have ever seen. The very large flowers are a saturated violet black color with a prominent cream white petal edge. The sepals are the widest that I have seen on a Tet daylily. When the sepals fold back the bright green color is expose not only in the throat but the sepals as well. So many outstanding trades in one daylily makes Tavares King of Kings the best of the best in this type of breeding. Fertile both ways.
