Description

Roman Steel (Pierce, G. '14) x Violets are Blue(Petiti, 2014) – 5 sds

Violets Are Blue (catalog cover)

(Blast of Blue x Laws of Illusion) x (Cobalt Rings) Sev. 6-7" fl. 25" sc. M to L. 20 buds. Fertile both ways. Excellent rust tolerance and cold hardy. Choosing the “cover girl” for our Spring catalog is often difficult, but not this year. In fact, we sensed this variety could make the cover since first seeing it’s maiden bloom. Introducing ‘Violets Are Blue’, a lavender self with an enormous violet-blue eye zone with a matching extra-wide ruffled picotee surrounded by a chartreuse edge. There are daylilies with eyes which nearly cover the flower face, and good blue tones are increasingly normal. But combining these traits represents a giant leap in the evolution of blue daylilies. A true blue lily flower, where the entire petal surface is blue, is now within our grasp. A must have for hybridizers, and destined to be a perennial favorite for flower enthusiasts. Roses are red, these are $330

Roman Steel (Pierce G.) 1451-B (Cutting Loose X Magical Marrakech) X Sib to Buffalo Thunder) TET SEV EE 30” 7” flower, 6 way branching, 35-40 buds.

This is easily one of my finest daylilies, well admired by Matthew Kaskell along with Bluegrass Shadows, which at the time were side by side when Matthew visited. I have bloomed well over a hundred thousand purple seedlings and rarely does a daylily have the presence of Roman Steel. I cannot tell you everything in words just that she sings with style!!! The rich purple petals have dark purple veining throughout and are outlined in a strong ruffled white edge. Inside the edge is a bluish silver shadow that matches the large watermark above the green throat. Honestly Roman Steel looks 3-D to me and is one of the heaviest flowers I grow. I have not been able to truly capture the lure of this daylily in a photo, though every pic could be a cover shot; and I will not use magnifying lenses! Anyway, this flower takes my breath away and I will be continuing to use Roman Steel for some time. Easily fertile both ways, with great success. Very heavy substance. This is a daylily that I would like to see win the Stout Medal someday. Easily fertile both ways. Enjoy
