AUCTION IS FOR 5 SEEDS FROM THE CROSS OF BENJAMIN ANDREW X REGAL DREAM.
POD PARENT DESCRIPTION:
Benjamin Andrew (Korth-P., – Korth-L.; 2021)
28”, 6”, M, Dor., 4 branches, 24 buds, Tetraploid, Rebloom
((Lydia’s Cloth x Born to Run) x (Lydia’s Cloth x Harold Steen))
Benjamin Andrew is one of the finest daylilies we have produced. The rich burgundy color and large gold edge make for a beautiful flower. Other great attributes include minimal blemishes, pod and pollen fertility, rebloom in our climate. The parents of Benjamin Andrew include our great purple breeder – Lydia’s Cloth which contributes clear color and a lack of blemishes. The big gold edge is likely due to our fabulous Harold Steen. We are finding Benjamin Andrew to be a fine parent – passing on the big gold edge and clear colors. It is easily fertile both ways!
Benjamin Andrew was delayed for introduction as it is slow to increase but we think this trait is great for gardeners as this flower does not need to be divided as often. This unique flower is named for our grandson and is as special as he is. Very limited and will be much sought after.
POLLEN PARENT DESCRIPTION:
Regal Dream
'Regal Dream' (Meadows-Ma, 2021), 16-043-B, (Rosemarie Louise x Orchid Linen), Tet, EV, EM, Re, Frag, EMO, 32” scape, 6.00” flower, 4-5 way branching, 25-30 buds.
Soft-purple petals with a well-defined, white watermark above a green throat. Petals are outlined with a very wide, pleated, ruffled, yellow edge that screams for attention. This flower is breath-taking when blooming in a clump!!! Fertile both ways.
This is my best parent to date for passing on big edges and broad watermarks. The next gen seedlings are spectacular. Regal Dream looks exactly like the photo and very rarely fails to open fully. I started to list this plant as semi-evergreen because it shows a touch of dormancy and both parents have dormancy in their background.
