*SPLATTER
(2011 MUSSAR)
(SHISHEDO X EXPANDING UNIVERSE)
For several years now I've had a breeding goal focused on producing a spotted daylily. Many years ago well before daylilies, I collected orchids and recall how the selective breeding of a few phalenopsis species led to the heavily spotted cultivars we see today. I wondered if the same thing would be possible with daylilies? At the time nobody appeared to be working on this goal. However in breeding sometimes you don't get what you are looking for!
SPLATTER came out of those early efforts. The flower has a light peach-melon base with a variable dusty rose overlay that produces a mottled patterned effect. The pattern reminds me a bit of a plicata-like effect that is seen in iris. It is variable with a different look each day and occasionally has a simple speckled pattern. SPLATTER has a green throat and a fine gold edge on the petals. The 5" flowers are borne on 27" tall scapes with up to 2 laterals and a terminal Y or W bud cluster. Bud count on this Mid to Late season bloomer is in the 20 range. Tetraploid. Foliage is Dormant despite its evergreen parentage (Shishedo x Expanding Universe). Fertile both ways.
This flower is being introduced primarily as a hybridizer's plant. I have a hard time calling it pretty but it is distinctive. SPLATTER is producing patterned kids and I continue to use it heavily in my breeding program.
Parentage: Shishedo x Expanding Universe.
*APRICOT SPARKLES 3307
(VA VA VOOM X COLORFUL CHAOS R2D2)
I AM SO EXCITED TO HAVE BROKEN PATTERNS FROM DIFFERENT GENE POOLS!
THESE ARE LUSCIOUS COLORS..LIKE A COMBO FRUIT SALAD OF CANTALOUPE AND STRAWBERRIES WITH A BIT OF APRICOT NEAR THE EDGE OF THE PETAL. THE FIRST BLOOM WAS 5 + INCHES ON A SCAPE 25 INCHES TALL. THE POOR PLANT WAS STUCK UNDER ANOTHER PLANT AND WAS HARDLY GIVEN ROOM TO MOVE. HOPEFULLY NEXT YEAR I WILL HAVE SOME BETTER STATS.
THE BROKEN PATTERN IS LOVELY AND IT HAS RUFFLES AND CREASING AND A TINY GOLD EDGE ON THE PETALS, AND NICE WIDE BLUNT SEPALS. POD AND POLLEN FERTILE.
*INDOMINUS REX
(BENZ 2015)
THIS BRIGHT RED HAS HUGE WHITE SPIKES AND IS 34 INCHES TALL. MID REBLOOM DORMANT TET WITH 6 INCH FLOWERS
*BURNING SUN SPRINKLES 2786
(4184 X DEADLIEST CATCH)
LARGE RUFFLED YELLOW FLOWER WITH SPLASHES OF RED ORANGE OCCASIONALLY APPEARING ON THE PETAL.
